Right now, there is no notifier that is called on a new cpu, before the new
cpu begins processing interrupts/softirqs.
Various kernel function would need that notification, e.g. kvm works around
by calling smp_call_function_single(), rcu polls cpu_online_map.

The patch adds a CPU_STARTING notification. It also adds a helper function
that sends the message to all cpu_chain handlers.

Tested on x86-64.
All other archs are untested. Especially on sparc, I'm not sure if I got
it right.

This hooks up GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS_BROADCAST and a dummy local timer,
which we call in to from the timer IPI when no other local timer is
provided.

This provides a generic smp_message_recv() routine (based on the PPC
one), that IPI IRQs can wrap in to.

It's not even passed on to smp_call_function() anymore, since that
was removed. So kill it.

This converts sh to use the new helpers for smp_call_function() and
friends, and adds support for smp_call_function_single(). Not tested,
but it compiles.

There was a very preliminary bunch of SMP code scattered around for the
SH7604 microcontrollers from way back when, and it has mostly suffered
bitrot since then. With the tree already having been slowly getting
prepped for SMP, this plugs in most of the remaining platform-independent
bits.

Several errors were spotted during building for custom config (SMP
included). Although SMP still does not compile (no ipi and
__smp_call_function) and does not work, this looks a bit cleaner.
Some other errors obtained via gcc-4.1.0 build.

Run idle threads with preempt disabled.

Also corrected a bugs in arm26's cpu_idle (make it actually call schedule()).
How did it ever work before?

Might fix the CPU hotplugging hang which Nigel Cunningham noted.

We think the bug hits if the idle thread is preempted after checking
need_resched() and before going to sleep, then the CPU offlined.

After calling stop_machine_run, the CPU eventually returns from preemption and
into the idle thread and goes to sleep.  The CPU will continue executing
previous idle and have no chance to call play_dead.

By disabling preemption until we are ready to explicitly schedule, this bug is
fixed and the idle threads generally become more robust.

Original patch by Harald Welte, with feedback from Herbert Xu
and testing by Sébastien Bernard.

EBTABLES, ARP tables, and IP/IP6 tables all assume that cpus
are numbered linearly.  That is not necessarily true.

This patch fixes that up by calculating the largest possible
cpu number, and allocating enough per-cpu structure space given
that.

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!
