KVM: Export include/linux/kvm.h only if $ARCH actually supports KVM
Currently, make headers_check barfs due to <asm/kvm.h>, which <linux/kvm.h>

which makes this an 2.6.25 regression.
One way of solving the issue is to enhance Kbuild, but Avi and David conviced
me, that changing headers_install is not the way to go. This patch changes
the definition for linux/kvm.h to unifdef-y.
If unifdef-y is used for linux/kvm.h "make headers_check" will fail on all
architectures without asm/kvm.h. Therefore, this patch also provides
asm/kvm.h on all architectures.

Fix the problem that the following error message is sometimes displayed
at irq migration when vector domain is enabled.
"Unexpected interrupt vector %d on CPU %d is not mapped to any IRQ!"
The cause of this problem is an interrupt is sent to the previous
target CPU after cleaning up vector to irq mapping table. To clean up
vector to irq map on the previous target CPU safty, change the irq
migration in multiple vector domain as follows. The original idea is
from x86 interrupt management code.
- Delay vector to irq table cleanup until the interrupts are sent
to new target CPUs. By this, it is ensured that target CPU is
completely changed on the interrupt controller side.
- Even after the interrupts are sent to new target CPUs, there can
be pended interrupts remaining on the previous target CPU. So we
need to delay clearning up vector to irq table until the pended
interrupt is handled. For this, send IPI to the previous target
CPU with lower priority vector and clean up vector to irq table
in its handler.
This patch affects only to irq migration code with multiple vector
domain is enabled.

This patch implements VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING for ia64,
which enable us to use more accurate cpu time accounting.
The VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is an item of kernel config, which s390
and powerpc arch have. By turning this config on, these archs
change the mechanism of cpu time accounting from tick-sampling
based one to state-transition based one.
The state-transition based accounting is done by checking time
(cycle counter in processor) at every state-transition point,
such as entrance/exit of kernel, interrupt, softirq etc.
The difference between point to point is the actual time consumed
during in the state. There is no doubt about that this value is
more accurate than that of tick-sampling based accounting.

Commit bdc807871d broke the build
for this config because the sim_defconfig selects CONFIG_HZ=250
but include/asm-ia64/param.h has an ifdef for the simulator to
force HZ to 32. So we ended up with a kernel/timeconst.h set
for HZ=250 ... which then failed the check for the right HZ
value and died with:
Drop the #ifdef magic from param.h and make force CONFIG_HZ=32
directly for the simulator.

This is base kernel patch for ptrace RSE bug. It's basically a backport
from the utrace RSE patch I sent out several weeks ago. please review.
when a thread is stopped (ptraced), debugger might change thread's user
stack (change memory directly), and we must avoid the RSE stored in
kernel to override user stack (user space's RSE is newer than kernel's
in the case). To workaround the issue, we copy kernel RSE to user RSE
before the task is stopped, so user RSE has updated data. we then copy
user RSE to kernel after the task is resummed from traced stop and
kernel will use the newer RSE to return to user.

Background: I've implemented 1K/2K page tables for s390. These sub-page
page tables are required to properly support the s390 virtualization
instruction with KVM. The SIE instruction requires that the page tables
have 256 page table entries (pte) followed by 256 page status table entries
(pgste). The pgstes are only required if the process is using the SIE
instruction. The pgstes are updated by the hardware and by the hypervisor
for a number of reasons, one of them is dirty and reference bit tracking.
To avoid wasting memory the standard pte table allocation should return
1K/2K (31/64 bit) and 2K/4K if the process is using SIE.
Problem: Page size on s390 is 4K, page table size is 1K or 2K. That means
the s390 version for pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a struct
page. Trouble is that with the CONFIG_HIGHPTE feature on x86 pte_alloc_one
cannot return a pointer to a pte either, since that would require more than
32 bit for the return value of pte_alloc_one (and the pte * would not be
accessible since its not kmapped).
Solution: The only solution I found to this dilemma is a new typedef: a
pgtable_t. For s390 pgtable_t will be a (pte *) - to be introduced with a
later patch. For everybody else it will be a (struct page *). The
additional problem with the initialization of the ptl lock and the
NR_PAGETABLE accounting is solved with a constructor pgtable_page_ctor and
a destructor pgtable_page_dtor. The page table allocation and free
functions need to call these two whenever a page table page is allocated or
freed. pmd_populate will get a pgtable_t instead of a struct page pointer.
To get the pgtable_t back from a pmd entry that has been installed with
pmd_populate a new function pmd_pgtable is added. It replaces the pmd_page
call in free_pte_range and apply_to_pte_range.

cmpxchg().
Changelog:
ia64 cmpxchg_local coding style fix
Quoting Keith Owens:
As a matter of coding style, I prefer
#define cmpxchg_local cmpxchg
#define cmpxchg64_local cmpxchg64
Which makes it absolutely clear that they are the same code. With your
patch, humans have to do a string compare of two defines to see if they
are the same.
Note cmpxchg is *not* a performance win vs interrupt disable / enable on IA64.
