Comment says wmb is a nop, but it is implemented as lock addl
below... Should it be compiled to nop if we know we are running on
"good" Intel cpu?
At least remove confusing comment for now.

notrace signals that a function should not be traced. Most of the
time this is used by tracers to annotate code that cannot be
traced - it's in a volatile state (such as in user vdso context
or NMI context) or it's in the tracer internals.

capabilities as they are present in x86_capability.
(cpu_has() will shortcut certain tests during build-time)

quad core 8 socket system will have apic id lifting.the apic id range could
be [4, 0x23]. and apic_is_clustered_box will think that need to three clusters
and that is larger than 2. So it is treated as a clustered_box.
and will get:
Marking TSC unstable due to TSCs unsynchronized
even if the CPUs have X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC set.
this quick fix will check if the cpu is from AMD.
but vsmp still needs that checking...
this patch is fix to make sure that vsmp not to be passed.

x86: define outb_pic and inb_pic to stop using outb_p and inb_p
The delay between io port accesses to the PIC is now defined using outb_pic
and inb_pic. This fix provides the next step, using udelay(2) to define the
*PIC specific* timing requirements, rather than on bus-oriented timing, which
is not well calibrated.
Again, the primary reason for fixing this is to use proper delay strategy,
and in particular to fix crashes that can result from using port 80 writes
on machines that have resources on port 80, such as the ENE chips used by Quanta
in latops it designs and sells to, e.g. HP.

These new controls toggle experimental support for a new CPU feature,
the straightforward extension of largepages from the pmd level to the
pud level, which allows 1GB (kernel) TLBs instead of 2MB TLBs.
Turn it off by default, as this code has not been tested well enough yet.
Use the CONFIG_DIRECT_GBPAGES=y .config option or gbpages on the
boot line can be used to enable it. If enabled in the .config then
nogbpages boot option disables it.

people sometimes do crazy stuff like building really large static
arrays into their kernels or building allyesconfig kernels. Give
more space to the kernel and push modules up a bit: kernel has
512 MB and modules have 1.5 GB.
Should be enough for a few years ;-)

Pb1200/DBAu1200: fix bad IDE resource size
Au1200: IDE driver build fix
Au1200: kill IDE driver function prototypes
avr32 mustn't select HAVE_IDE
The header files for the Pb1200/DBAu1200 boards have wrong definition for the
IDE interface's decoded range length -- it should be 512 bytes according to
what the IDE driver does. In addition, the IDE platform device claims 1 byte
too many for its memory resource -- fix the platform code and the IDE driver
in accordance.

Fix these warnings emitted when compiling drivers/ide/mips/au1xxx-ide.c:
include/asm/mach-au1x00/au1xxx_ide.h:137: warning: 'auide_tune_drive' declared
`static' but never defined
include/asm/mach-au1x00/au1xxx_ide.h:138: warning: 'auide_tune_chipset' declared
`static' but never defined
by wiping out the whole "function prototyping" section from the header file
<asm-mips/mach-au1x00/au1xxx_ide.h> as it mostly declared functions that are
already dead in the IDE driver; move the only useful prototype into the driver.

mb_cache_entry_alloc() was allocating cache entries with GFP_KERNEL. But
filesystems are calling this function while holding xattr_sem so possible
recursion into the fs violates locking ordering of xattr_sem and transaction
start / i_mutex for ext2-4. Change mb_cache_entry_alloc() so that filesystems
can specify desired gfp mask and use GFP_NOFS from all of them.
