Remove the arg+env limit of MAX_ARG_PAGES by copying the strings directly from
the old mm into the new mm.
We create the new mm before the binfmt code runs, and place the new stack at
the very top of the address space. Once the binfmt code runs and figures out
where the stack should be, we move it downwards.
It is a bit peculiar in that we have one task with two mm's, one of which is
inactive.

Currently most of the per cpu data, which is accessed by different cpus,
has a ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp attribute. Move all this data to the
new per cpu shared data section: .data.percpu.shared_aligned.
This will seperate the percpu data which is referenced frequently by other
cpus from the local only percpu data.

per cpu data section contains two types of data. One set which is
exclusively accessed by the local cpu and the other set which is per cpu,
but also shared by remote cpus. In the current kernel, these two sets are
not clearely separated out. This can potentially cause the same data
cacheline shared between the two sets of data, which will result in
unnecessary bouncing of the cacheline between cpus.
One way to fix the problem is to cacheline align the remotely accessed per
cpu data, both at the beginning and at the end. Because of the padding at
both ends, this will likely cause some memory wastage and also the
interface to achieve this is not clean.
This patch:
Moves the remotely accessed per cpu data (which is currently marked
as ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp) into a different section, where all the data
elements are cacheline aligned. And as such, this differentiates the local
only data and remotely accessed data cleanly.

I realise jprobes are a razor-blades-included type of interface, but that
doesn't mean we can't try and make them safer to use. This guy I know once
wrote code like this:
struct jprobe jp = { .kp.symbol_name = "foo", .entry = "jprobe_foo" };
And then his kernel exploded. Oops.
This patch adds an arch hook, arch_deref_entry_point() (I don't like it
either) which takes the void * in a struct jprobe, and gives back the text
address that it represents.
We can then use that in register_jprobe() to check that the entry point we're
passed is actually in the kernel text, rather than just some random value.

This patch completes Linus's wish that the fault return codes be made into
bit flags, which I agree makes everything nicer. This requires requires
all handle_mm_fault callers to be modified (possibly the modifications
should go further and do things like fault accounting in handle_mm_fault --
however that would be for another patch).

The TSEC/eTSEC can detect the interface to the PHY automatically,
but it isn't able to detect whether the RGMII connection needs internal
delay. So we need to detect that change in the device tree, propagate
it to the platform data, and then check it if we're in RGMII. This fixes
a bug on the 8641D HPCN board where the Vitesse PHY doesn't use the delay
for RGMII.

The TSEC/eTSEC automatically detect their PHY interface type, unless
the type is RGMII-ID (RGMII with internal delay). In that situation,
it just detects RGMII. In order to fix this, we need to pass in rgmii-id
if that is the connection type.
