Due to the fact that p4 counters are shared between HT threads
we synthetically divide the whole set of counters into two
non-intersected subsets. And while we're "borrowing" counters
from these subsets we should not be preempted (well, strictly
speaking in p4_hw_config we just pre-set reference to the
subset which allow to save some cycles in schedule routine
if it happens on the same cpu). So use get_cpu/put_cpu pair.
Also p4_pmu_schedule_events should use smp_processor_id rather
than raw_ version. This allow us to catch up preemption issue
(if there will ever be).

Clean up the hypervisor layer and the hypervisor drivers, using an ops
structure instead of an enumeration with if statements.
The identity of the hypervisor, if needed, can be tested by testing
the pointer value in x86_hyper.
The MS-HyperV private state is moved into a normal global variable
(it's per-system state, not per-CPU state). Being a normal bss
variable, it will be left at all zero on non-HyperV platforms, and so
can generally be tested for HyperV-specific features without
additional qualification.

Rename perf_event_attr::precise to perf_event_attr::precise_ip and
widen it to 2 bits. This new field describes the required precision of
the PERF_SAMPLE_IP field:
0 - SAMPLE_IP can have arbitrary skid
1 - SAMPLE_IP must have constant skid
2 - SAMPLE_IP requested to have 0 skid
3 - SAMPLE_IP must have 0 skid
And modify the Intel PEBS code accordingly. The PEBS implementation
now supports up to precise_ip == 2, where we perform the IP fixup.
Also s/PERF_RECORD_MISC_EXACT/&_IP/ to clarify its meaning, this bit
should be set for each PERF_SAMPLE_IP field known to match the actual
instruction triggering the event.
This new scheme allows for a PEBS mode that uses the buffer for more
than a single event.

There may exist constraints with a cmask set to zero. In this case
for_each_event_constraint() will not work properly. Now weight is used
instead of the cmask for loop exit detection. Weight is always a value
other than zero since the default contains the HWEIGHT from the
counter mask and in other cases a value of zero does not fit too.
This is in preparation of ibs event constraints that wont have a
cmask.

ACPI irq source overrides are allowed for the 16 isa irqs and are
allowed to map any gsi to any isa irq. A few motherboards have been
seen to take advantage of this and put the isa irqs on the 2nd or
3rd ioapic. This causes some problems, most notably the fact
that we can not use any gsi < 16.
To correct this move the gsis that are not isa irqs and have
a gsi number < 16 into the linux irq space just past gsi_end.
This is what the es7000 platform is doing today. Moving only the
low 16 gsis above the rest of the gsi's only penalizes weird
platforms, leaving sane acpi implementations with a 1-1 mapping
of gsis and irqs.

Long ago MP_ioapic_info was the primary way of setting up our
ioapic data structures and mp_register_ioapic was a compatibility
shim for acpi code. Now the situation is reversed and
and mp_register_ioapic is the primary way of setting up our
ioapic data structures.
Keep the setting up of ioapic data structures uniform by
having mp_register_ioapic call mp_register_ioapic.
This changes a few fields:
- type: is now hardset to MP_IOAPIC but type had to
bey MP_IOAPIC or MP_ioapic_info would not have been called.
- flags: is now hard coded to MPC_APIC_USABLE.
We require flags to contain at least MPC_APIC_USEBLE in
MP_ioapic_info and we don't ever examine flags so dropping
a few flags that might possibly exist that we have never
used is harmless.
- apicaddr: Unchanged
- apicver: Read from the ioapic instead of using the cached
hardware value in the MP table. The real hardware value
will be more accurate.
- apicid: Now verified to be unique and changed if it is not.
If the BIOS got this right this is a noop. If the BIOS did
not fixing things appears to be the better solution.
This adds gsi_base and gsi_end values to our ioapics defined with
the mpatable, which will make our lives simpler later since
we can always assume gsi_base and gsi_end are valid.

io_apic_redir_entries has a huge conceptual bug. It returns the maximum
redirection entry not the number of redirection entries. Which simply
does not match what the name of the function. This just caught me
and it caught Feng Tang, and Len Brown when they wrote sfi_parse_ioapic.
Modify io_apic_redir_entries to actually return the number of redirection
entries, and fix the callers so that they properly handle receiving the
number of the number of redirection table entries, instead of the
number of redirection table entries less one.
While the usage in sfi.c does not show up in this patch it is fixed
by virtue of the fact that io_apic_redir_entries now has the semantics
sfi_parse_ioapic most reasonably expects.

Remove the assumption that there is not an override for isa irq 0.
Instead lookup the gsi and from that lookup the ioapic and pin of each

doing something weird.

In perverse acpi implementations the isa irqs are not identity mapped
to the first 16 gsi. Furthermore at least the extended interrupt
resource capability may return gsi's and not isa irqs. So since
what we get from acpi is a gsi teach acpi_get_overrride_irq to
operate on a gsi instead of an isa_irq.

There are a number of cases where the current code makes the assumption
that isa irqs identity map to the first 16 acpi global system intereupts.
In most instances that assumption is correct as that is the required
behaviour in dual i8259 mode and the default behavior in ioapic mode.
However there are some systems out there that take advantage of acpis
interrupt remapping for the isa irqs to have a completely different
mapping of isa_irq to gsi.
Introduce acpi_isa_irq_to_gsi to perform this mapping explicitly in the
code that needs it. Initially this will be just the current assumed
identity mapping to ensure it's introduction does not cause regressions.

The current policies of breakpoints in x86 and SH are the following:
- task bound breakpoints can only break on userspace addresses
- cpu wide breakpoints can only break on kernel addresses
The former rule prevents ptrace breakpoints to be set to trigger on
kernel addresses, which is good. But as a side effect, we can't
breakpoint on kernel addresses for task bound breakpoints.
The latter rule simply makes no sense, there is no reason why we
can't set breakpoints on userspace while performing cpu bound
profiles.
We want the following new policies:
- task bound breakpoint can set userspace address breakpoints, with
no particular privilege required.
- task bound breakpoints can set kernelspace address breakpoints but
must be privileged to do that.
- cpu bound breakpoints can do what they want as they are privileged
already.
To implement these new policies, this patch checks if we are dealing
with a kernel address breakpoint, if so and if the exclude_kernel
parameter is set, we tell the user that the breakpoint is invalid,
which makes a good generic ptrace protection.
If we don't have exclude_kernel, ensure the user has the right
privileges as kernel breakpoints are quite sensitive (risk of
trap recursion attacks and global performance impacts).

Tag ptrace breakpoints with the exclude_kernel attribute set. This
will make it easier to set generic policies on breakpoints, when it
comes to ensure nobody unpriviliged try to breakpoint on the kernel.

Upstream PV guests fail to boot because of a NULL pointer in
irq_force_complete_move(). It is possible that xen guests have
irq_desc->chip_data = NULL.
Test for NULL chip_data pointer before attempting to complete an irq move.

After programming the HPET, we do a readback as a workaround for
ATI/SBx00 chipsets as a synchronization. Unfortunately this triggers
an erratum in newer ICH chipsets (ICH9+) where reading the comparator
immediately after the write returns the old value. Furthermore, as
always, I/O reads are bad for performance.
Therefore, restrict the readback to the chipsets that need it, or, for
debugging purposes, when we are running with hpet=verbose.

It's not used by any module, and i386 (as well as some other arches)
also doesn't export its equivalent (swapper_pg_dir).
