gcc should handle this anyways, and it causes problems when
sprintf is turned into strcpy by gcc behind our backs and
the C fallback version of strcpy is actually defining __builtin_strcpy
Then drop -ffreestanding from the main Makefile because it isn't
needed anymore and implies -fno-builtin, which is wrong now.
(it was only added for x86-64, so dropping it should be safe)

We've always had the problem that arguments only did a prefix match,
which resulted e.g. in noapic and noapictimer getting confused.
Fix the early argument parsing code to always check that arguments are
whole words (except for those that take additional arguments of course)
I factored out the checking code for that while also makes the code
easier to maintain.

While the modular aspect of the respective i386 patch doesn't apply to
x86-64 (as the top level page directory entry is shared between modules
and the base kernel), handlers registered with register_die_notifier()
are still under similar constraints for touching ioremap()ed or
vmalloc()ed memory. The likelihood of this problem becoming visible is
of course significantly lower, as the assigned virtual addresses would
have to cross a 2**39 byte boundary. This is because the callback gets
invoked
(a) in the page fault path before the top level page table propagation
gets carried out (hence a fault to propagate the top level page table
entry/entries mapping to module's code/data would nest infinitly) and
(b) in the NMI path, where nested faults must absolutely not happen,
since otherwise the IRET from the nested fault re-enables NMIs,
potentially resulting in nested NMI occurences.

The PM timer path through main_timer_handler doesn't need
the delay variable because it figures it out in a different way.
Don't try to read it from the PIT. With stopped PIT timer
it is even useless.

Minor cleanup to lend better for physical CPU hotplug.
Earlier way of using num_processors as index doesnt
fit if CPUs come and go. This makes the code little bit better
to read, and helps physical hotplug use the same functions as boot.
Reserving CPU0 for BSP is too late to be done in smp_prepare_boot_cpu().
Since logical assignments from MADT is already done via
setup_arch()->acpi_boot_init()->parse lapic

Touching of the floating point state in a kernel debugger must be
NMI-safe, specifically math_state_restore() must be able to deal with
being called out of an NMI context. In order to do that reliably, the
context switch code must take care to not leave a window open where
the current task's TS_USEDFPU flag and CR0.TS could get out of sync.

The upcomming gcc 4.2 got a new option -mtune=generic to tune
code for both common AMD and Intel CPUs. Use this option
when available for generic kernels.
On x86-64 it is used with CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU. On i386 it is
enabled with CONFIG_X86_GENERIC. It won't affect the base
line CPU support in any ways and also not the minimum supported CPU.

Trivial conflict in arch/ppc/boot/Makefile manually fixed up
- Moved check for online cpu out of smp_prepare_cpu()
- Moved default declaration of smp_prepare_cpu() to kernel/cpu.c
- Removed lock_cpu_hotplug() from smp_prepare_cpu() to around it, since
its called from cpu_up() as well now.
- Removed clearing from cpu_present_map during cpu_offline as it breaks
using cpu_up() directly during a subsequent online operation.
