This adds a few more things from the ntp nanokernel related to user space.
It's now possible to select the resolution used of some values via STA_NANO
and the kernel reports in which mode it works (pll/fll).
If some values for adjtimex() are outside the acceptable range, they are now
simply normalized instead of letting the syscall fail. I removed
MOD_CLKA/MOD_CLKB as the mapping didn't really makes any sense, the kernel
doesn't support setting the clock.

x86 is the only arch right now, which provides an optimized for
div_long_long_rem and it has the downside that one has to be very careful that
the divide doesn't overflow.
The API is a little akward, as the arguments for the unsigned divide are
signed. The signed version also doesn't handle a negative divisor and
produces worse code on 64bit archs.
There is little incentive to keep this API alive, so this converts the few
users to the new API.

The current do_div doesn't explicitly say that it's unsigned and the signed
counterpart is missing, which is e.g. needed when dealing with time values.
This introduces 64bit signed/unsigned divide functions which also attempts to
cleanup the somewhat awkward calling API, which often requires the use of
temporary variables for the dividend. To avoid the need for temporary
variables everywhere for the remainder, each divide variant also provides a
version which doesn't return the remainder.
Each architecture can now provide optimized versions of these function,
otherwise generic fallback implementations will be used.
As an example I provided an alternative for the current x86 divide, which
avoids the asm casts and using an union allows gcc to generate better code.
It also avoids the upper divde in a few more cases, where the result is known
(i.e. upper quotient is zero).

currently cpu hotplug (unplug) seems broken on s390 and likely others. On cpu
unplug the system starts to behave very strange and hangs.
I bisected the problem to the following commit:
commit 48f20a9a94
Author: Olof Johansson <olof@lixom.net>
Date: Tue Mar 4 15:23:25 2008 -0800
tasklets: execute tasklets in the same order they were queued
Reverting this patch seems to fix the problem. I looked into takeover_tasklet
and it seems that there is a way to corrupt the tail pointer of the current
cpu. If the tasklet list of the frozen cpu is empty, the tail pointer of the
current cpu points to the address of the head pointer of the stopped cpu and
not to the next pointer of a tasklet_struct.
This patch avoids the list splice of the list is empty and cpu hotplug seems
to work as the tail pointer is not corrupted. Olof, can you look into that
patch and ACK/NACK it so Andrew can push this to Linus, if appropriate?
Please note that some lines are longer than 80 chars, but line-wrapping looked
worse that this version.

Don't hold f->sem while calling into jffs2_do_create(). It makes lockdep
unhappy, and we don't really need it -- the _reason_ it's a false
positive is because nobody else can see this inode yet and so nobody
will be trying to lock it anyway.

Don't over-write hwif->host_flags in ide_init_port(), some host drivers
set IDE_HFLAG_MMIO or IDE_HFLAG_NO_IO_32BIT host flag early.

__find_symbol() has grown over time: there are now 5 different arrays
of symbols it traverses. It also shouldn't print out a warning on
some calls (ie. verify_symbol which simply checks for name clashes,
and __symbol_put which checks for bugs).
1) Rename to find_symbol: no need for underscores.
2) Use bool and add "warn" parameter to suppress warnings.
3) Make table-driven rather than open coded.

When I backed out of using the generic sg chaining (as it isn't currently
portable) and introduced scatterwalk_sg_chain/scatterwalk_sg_next I left
out the sg_is_last check in the latter. This causes it to potentially
dereference beyond the end of the sg array.
As most uses of scatterwalk_sg_next are bound by an overall length, this
only affected the chaining code in authenc and eseqiv. Thanks to Patrick
McHardy for identifying this problem.
This patch also clears the "last" bit on the head of the chained list as
it's no longer last. This also went missing in scatterwalk_sg_chain and
is present in sg_chain.
