Hopefully this will make it more maintainable and less error prone.
Code makes use of search_exception_tables(). Since it calls this
function before the kernel exeception table is sorted, there is an
early call to sort_main_extable().
This way it's easy to use the already present infrastructure of fixup
sections. Also this would allows to easily convert the rest of
head[31|64].S into C code.

Preset the bogomips number to the cpu capacity value reported by
store system information in SYSIB 1.2.2. This value is constant
for a particular machine model and can be used to determine
relative performance differences between machines.

3592 tape devices are able to write data encrpyted on tape mediums.
This z/Linux device driver support includes the following functions:
* ioctl to switch on/off encryption
* ioctl to query encryption status of drive
* ioctls to set and query key encrypting keys (kekls)
* long busy interrupt handling

This patch adds support for clock synchronization to an external time
reference (ETR). The external time reference sends an oscillator
signal and a synchronization signal every 2^20 microseconds to keep
the TOD clocks of all connected servers in sync. For availability
two ETR units can be connected to a machine. If the clock deviates
for more than the sync-check tolerance all cpus get a machine check
that indicates that the clock is out of sync. For the lovely details
how to get the clock back in sync see the code below.

If we have a subchannel id which has been generated via
for_each_subchannel(), it might contain an invalid subchannel set id.
We need to catch the ensuing operand exception by using stsch_err()
instead of stsch() in all possible cases.

The reserve/release IOCTLs sometimes do not work. If second system
does a 'steal lock' the pending unit check (Format 3 Msg F) is
delivered. Since ERP is disabled for reserve/release, the IOCTL call
fails. We have to allow basic ERP (retries) for reserve/release IOCTLs.

cpu_relax() has barrier() semantics hence there is no need to use both
of them in conjunction in sclp_sync_wait(). Also change cpu_relax()
so it's more obvious that it has barrier semantics.

If we try to start path verification when an unsolicited interrupt
is already pending, stctl shows status pending and we delay path
verification again. We need to check for the doverify bit when the
unsolicited interrupt comes in and then do path verification.

The initialization of the dasd_eer code is one of the last steps of the
dasd driver initialization. When initialization fails in one of the
earlier steps, the dasd_exit function is called to clean up what has been
done so far. So the dasd_eer_exit function may be called, although the
dasd_eer_init function wasn't called before and dasd_eer_exit tries to
unregister a misc device that wasn't registered, which results in a BUG.
Make sure that dasd_eer_exit can be called without initialization. Use a
dynamically allocated struct miscdevice instead of a static one, so we
only try to unregister the device if it exists and was actually registered.

Requests are aborted when the sclp interface reports 'not operational'
even though they may still be active at the sclp, leading to concurrent
writes to request memory by both the kernel and the sclp interface.
Do not abort requests for which the sclp interface reports not
operational status during request retry.

Use barrier() in stsch_reset() instead of duplicating the stsch()
inline assembly and adding "memory" to the clobberlist.
Pointed out by Chuck Ebbert.
Real fix would be to add a fixup section to the stsch() and extend the
basic program check handler so it searches the exception tables in case
of a program check.
