It's theoretically possible that there are exception table entries
which point into the (freed) init text of modules.  These could cause
future problems if other modules get loaded into that memory and cause
an exception as we'd see the wrong fixup.  The only case I know of is
kvm-intel.ko (when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n).

Amerigo fixed this long-standing FIXME in the x86 version, but this
patch is more general.

This implements trim_init_extable(); most archs are simple since they
use the standard lib/extable.c sort code.  Alpha and IA64 use relative
addresses in their fixups, so thier trimming is a slight variation.

Sparc32 is unique; it doesn't seem to define ARCH_HAS_SORT_EXTABLE,
yet it defines its own sort_extable() which overrides the one in lib.
It doesn't sort, so we have to mark deleted entries instead of
actually trimming them.

The majority of this patch was created by the following script:

***
ASM=arch/sparc/include/asm
mkdir -p $ASM
git mv include/asm-sparc64/ftrace.h $ASM
git rm include/asm-sparc64/*
git mv include/asm-sparc/* $ASM
sed -ie 's/asm-sparc64/asm/g' $ASM/*
sed -ie 's/asm-sparc/asm/g' $ASM/*
***

The rest was an update of the top-level Makefile to use sparc
for header files when sparc64 is being build.
And a small fixlet to pick up the correct unistd.h from
sparc64 code.

With this commit all sparc64 header files are moved to asm-sparc.
The remaining files (71 files) were too different to be trivially
merged so divide them up in a _32.h and a _64.h file which
are both included from the file with no bit size.

The following script were used:
cd include
FILES=`wc -l asm-sparc64/*h | grep -v '^     1' | cut -b 20-`

for FILE in ${FILES}; do
  echo $FILE:
  BASE=`echo $FILE | cut -d '.' -f 1`
  FN32=${BASE}_32.h
  FN64=${BASE}_64.h
  GUARD=___ASM_SPARC_`echo $BASE | tr '-' '_' | tr [:lower:] [:upper:]`_H
  git mv asm-sparc/$FILE asm-sparc/$FN32
  git mv asm-sparc64/$FILE asm-sparc/$FN64
  echo git mv done
  printf "#ifndef %s\n" $GUARD                             >   asm-sparc/$FILE
  printf "#define %s\n" $GUARD                             >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
  printf "#if defined(__sparc__) && defined(__arch64__)\n" >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
  printf "#include <asm-sparc/%s>\n" $FN64                 >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
  printf "#else\n"                                         >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
  printf "#include <asm-sparc/%s>\n" $FN32                 >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
  printf "#endif\n"                                        >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
  printf "#endif\n"                                        >>  asm-sparc/$FILE
  git add asm-sparc/$FILE
  echo new file done
  printf "#include <asm-sparc/%s>\n" $FILE                 >  asm-sparc64/$FILE
  git add asm-sparc64/$FILE
  echo sparc64 file done
done

The guard contains three '_' to avoid conflict with existing guards.
In additing the two Kbuild files are emptied to avoid breaking
headers_* targets.
We will reintroduce the exported header files when the necessary
kbuild changes are merged.

There were still a few comments left refering to verify_area, and two
functions, verify_area_skas & verify_area_tt that just wrap corresponding
access_ok_skas & access_ok_tt functions, just like verify_area does for
access_ok - deprecate those.

There was also a few places that still used verify_area in commented-out
code, fix those up to use access_ok.

After applying this one there should not be anything left but finally
removing verify_area completely, which will happen after a kernel release
or two.

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!
