Commit '28a0ce7 xtensa: use correct stack pointer for stack traces'
changed the stack tracer from always reading the stack pointer
register to always using the saved value in the task descriptor.
The author was too dense to consider the fact that the saved stack
value is stale for a running process und thus unusable for 'current'.
What we do now is to use the stack pointer register (a1) for when the
task is unknown - we can't help it then - or when the task is
'current'. For everything else use the saved stack pointer value
contained in the task descriptor.

We need to add a "memory" dependency (barrier) in assembly macros
that access (read or write) memory. Otherwise, the compiler might
ill-optimize the order of memory accesses.

Move a misplace endmenu marker to enable platform options and
disable PCI and automatic calibrating for the XT2K board. The
on-board PCI bridge is somewhat broken, anyway, and the
calibrating relies on some whacky usage of the serial port.

It is better to disable interrupt while holding cmci_discover_lock,
to turn it into an irq-safe lock - we can deadlock otherwise.

The Xen pagetables are no longer implicitly reserved as part of the other
i386_start_kernel reservations, so make sure we explicitly reserve them.
This prevents them from being released into the general kernel free page
pool and reused.

Tim Starling reported that crashdump will panic with kernel compiled
with CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP due to null pointer deference in
machine_kexec_32.c: machine_kexec(), when deferencing
kexec_image. Refering to:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13265
This patch fixes the BUG via replacing global variable reference:
kexec_image in machine_kexec() with local variable reference: image,
which is more appropriate, and will not be null.
Same BUG is in machine_kexec_64.c too, so fixed too in the same way.

With the introduction of the .brk section, special care must be taken
that no unused page table entries remain if _brk_end and _end are
separated by a 2M page boundary. cleanup_highmap() runs very early and
hence cannot take care of that, hence potential entries needing to be
removed past _brk_end must be cleared once the brk allocator has done
its job.

If the first non-reserved (sub-)range doesn't fit the size requested,
an endless loop will be entered. If a range returned from
find_e820_area_size() turns out insufficient in size, the range must
be skipped before calling the function again.

From: Bruce Ashfield <bruce.ashfield@windriver.com>
To fully support the armv7-a instruction set/optimizations, support
for the R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC and R_ARM_MOVT_ABS relocation types is
required.
The MOVW and MOVT are both load-immediate instructions, MOVW loads 16
bits into the bottom half of a register, and MOVT loads 16 bits into the
top half of a register.
The relocation information for these instructions has a full 32 bit
value, plus an addend which is stored in the 16 immediate bits in the
instruction itself. The immediate bits in the instruction are not
contiguous (the register # splits it into a 4 bit and 12 bit value),
so the addend has to be extracted accordingly and added to the value.
The value is then split and put into the instruction; a MOVW uses the
bottom 16 bits of the value, and a MOVT uses the top 16 bits.

The mem= option will truncate the memory map at a specified address so
it's not possible to register nodes with memory beyond the e820 upper
bound.
unparse_node() is only called when then node had memory associated with
it, although with the mem= option it is no longer addressable.
