* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc-2.6:
sparc64: vio: Kill BUILD_BUG_ON() in vio_dring_avail().
Trivial conflict in arch/sparc/include/asm/vio.h due to David removing
the whole messy BUG_ON that was confused.
Commit 200b812d00 "Clear the exclusive monitor when returning from an
exception" broke the vast majority of ARM systems in the wild which are
still pre ARMv6. The kernel is crashing on the first occurrence of an
exception due to the removal of the actual return instruction for them.
Let's add it back.

Commit 51b563fc93 ("arm, cris, mips,
sparc, powerpc, um, xtensa: fix build with bash 4.0") removed a few
CPPFLAGS with vital include paths necessary to build vmlinux.lds
on MIPS, and moved the calculation of the 'jiffies' symbol
directly to vmlinux.lds.S but forgot to change make ifdef/... to
cpp macros.

Back in January 2008 Nick Piggin implemented "ticket" spinlocks
for X86 (See commit 314cdbefd1).
IA64 implementation has a couple of differences because of the
available atomic operations ... e.g. we have no fetchadd2 instruction
that operates on a 16-bit quantity so we make ticket locks use
a 32-bit word for each of the current ticket and now-serving values.
Performance on uncontended locks is about 8% worse than the previous
implementation, but this seems a good trade for determinism in the
contended case. Performance impact on macro-level benchmarks is in
the noise.

Note that .data.page_aligned and .data.cacheline_aligned are now after
_data; it was probably a bug that they were before it.
Also, some explicit ALIGN(8)'s between various initcall sections were
removed; this should be harmless as the implicit alignment of
initcall_t was already 8.

alpha is the only architecture that uses the section name
.data.init_thread instead of .data.init_task. So convert alpha to use
.data.init_task like everything else.
.data.init_task does not need a separate output section; this change
also moves it into the .data output section.
