Alpha implements custom SHIFT_PERCPU_PTR for modules because percpu
area can be located far away from the 4G area where the module text is
located.  The custom SHIFT_PERCPU_PTR forces GOT usage using ldq
instruction with literal relocation; however, the relocation can't be
used with dynamically allocated percpu variables.  Fortunately,
similar result can be achieved by using weak percpu variable
definitions.

This patch makes alpha use weak definitions and switch to dynamic
percpu allocator.

asm/tlbflush.h was getting linux/sched.h via asm/percpu.h which no
longer needs it.  Include linux/sched.h directly in asm/tlbflush.h.

Compile tested.  Generation of litereal relocation verified.

This patch is based on Ivan Kokshaysky's alpha percpu patch.

With the previous percpu variable definition change, all percpu
variables are global and there's no need to specify __used, which only
triggers on recent compilers anyway.  Kill it.

Commit 9b8de747 ("FRV: Fix the section
attribute on UP DECLARE_PER_CPU()") cleaned up DECLARE/DEFINE_PER_CPU()
macros and in the process made alpha percpu.h include
include/asm-generic/percpu.h which breaks compilation due to duplicate
definitions.

Remove inclusion of generic asm helper file and define whatever necessary
in alpha header proper.

In the longer term, percpu definitions will be unified and all these
little subtlties will be removed.

In non-SMP mode, the variable section attribute specified by DECLARE_PER_CPU()
does not agree with that specified by DEFINE_PER_CPU().  This means that
architectures that have a small data section references relative to a base
register may throw up linkage errors due to too great a displacement between
where the base register points and the per-CPU variable.

On FRV, the .h declaration says that the variable is in the .sdata section, but
the .c definition says it's actually in the .data section.  The linker throws
up the following errors:

kernel/built-in.o: In function `release_task':
kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o
kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o

To fix this, DECLARE_PER_CPU() should simply apply the same section attribute
as does DEFINE_PER_CPU().  However, this is made slightly more complex by
virtue of the fact that there are several variants on DEFINE, so these need to
be matched by variants on DECLARE.

Sam Ravnborg did the build-test that the direct header file move works,
I'm just committing it.

This is a pure move:

	mkdir arch/alpha/include
	git mv include/asm-alpha arch/alpha/include/asm

with no other changes.

Commit 9267b4b3 ("alpha: fix module load

To calculate addresses of locally defined variables, GCC uses 32-bit
displacement from the GP. Which doesn't work for per cpu variables in
modules, as an offset to the kernel per cpu area is way above 4G.

The workaround is to force allocation of a GOT entry for per cpu variable
using ldq instruction with a 'literal' relocation.
I had to use custom asm/percpu.h, as a required argument magic doesn't
work with asm-generic/percpu.h macros.

Rather than using a single constant PERCPU_ENOUGH_ROOM, compute it as
the sum of kernel_percpu + PERCPU_MODULE_RESERVE.  This is now common
to all architectures; if an architecture wants to set
PERCPU_ENOUGH_ROOM to something special, then it may do so (ia64 is
the only one which does).

Module loading on Alpha was failing with error "Could not allocate 8 bytes
percpu data".

Looking at dmesg we have the below error "No per-cpu room for modules."

Increase the PERCPU_ENOUGH_ROOM in a similar way as x86_64

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
