Partial revert of commit 129d8bc828e011bda0b7110a097bf3a0167f966e
titled 'x86: don't compile vsmp_64 for 32bit'
Commit reverted to compile vsmp_64.c if CONFIG_X86_64 is defined,
since is_vsmp_box() needs to indicate that TSCs are not synchronized, and
hence, not a valid time source, even when CONFIG_X86_VSMP is not defined.

Impact: bulletproofing, clarification
The brk reservation symbols are just there to document the amount
of space reserved by brk users in the final vmlinux file. Their
addresses are irrelevent, and using their addresses will cause
certain havok. Name them ".brk.NAME", which is a valid asm symbol
but C can't reference it; it also highlights their special
role in the symbol table.

Impact: new interface; remove hard-coded limit
Add RESERVE_BRK(name, size) macro to reserve space in the brk
area. This should be a conservative (ie, larger) estimate of
how much space might possibly be required from the brk area.
Any unused space will be freed, so there's no real downside
on making the reservation too large (within limits).
The name should be unique within a given file, and somewhat
descriptive.
The C definition of RESERVE_BRK() ends up being more complex than
one would expect to work around a cluster of gcc infelicities:
The first attempt was to simply try putting __section(.brk_reservation)
on a variable. This doesn't work because it ends up making it a
@progbits section, which gets actual space allocated in the vmlinux
executable.
The second attempt was to emit the space into a section using asm,
but gcc doesn't allow arguments to be passed to file-level asm()
statements, making it hard to pass in the size.
The final attempt is to wrap the asm() in a function to allow
it to have arguments, and put the function itself into the
.discard section, which vmlinux*.lds drops entirely from the
emitted vmlinux.

Impact: use new interface instead of previous ad hoc implementation
Rather than having special purpose init_pg_table_start/end variables
to delimit the kernel pagetable built by head_32.S, just use the brk
mechanism to extend the bss for the new pagetable.
This patch removes init_pg_table_start/end and pg0, defines __brk_base
(which is page-aligned and immediately follows _end), initializes
the brk region to start there, and uses it for the 32-bit pagetable.

Impact: new interface
Add a brk()-like allocator which effectively extends the bss in order
to allow very early code to do dynamic allocations. This is better than
using statically allocated arrays for data in subsystems which may never
get used.
The space for brk allocations is in the bss ELF segment, so that the
space is mapped properly by the code which maps the kernel, and so
that bootloaders keep the space free rather than putting a ramdisk or
something into it.
The bss itself, delimited by __bss_stop, ends before the brk area
(__brk_base to __brk_limit). The kernel text, data and bss is reserved
up to __bss_stop.
Any brk-allocated data is reserved separately just before the kernel
pagetable is built, as that code allocates from unreserved spaces
in the e820 map, potentially allocating from any unused brk memory.
Ultimately any unused memory in the brk area is used in the general
kernel memory pool.
Initially the brk space is set to 1MB, which is probably much larger
than any user needs (the largest current user is i386 head_32.S's code
to build the pagetables to map the kernel, which can get fairly large
with a big kernel image and no PSE support). So long as the system
has sufficient memory for the bootloader to reserve the kernel+1MB brk,
there are no bad effects resulting from an over-large brk.

Impact: cleanup
x86_quirks->update_apic() calling looks crazy. so try to remove it:
1. every apic take wakeup_cpu member directly
2. separate es7000_apic to es7000_apic_cluster
3. use uv_wakeup_cpu directly

Impact: cleanup
Make x86_quirks support more transparent. The highlevel
methods are now named:
extern void x86_quirk_pre_intr_init(void);
extern void x86_quirk_intr_init(void);
extern void x86_quirk_trap_init(void);
extern void x86_quirk_pre_time_init(void);
extern void x86_quirk_time_init(void);
This makes it clear that if some platform extension has to
do something here that it is considered ... weird, and is
discouraged.
Also remove arch_hooks.h and move it into setup.h (and other
header files where appropriate).

Impact: cleanup
Now that all APIC code is consolidated there's nothing 'gen' about
apics anymore - so rename 'struct genapic' to 'struct apic'.
This shortens the code and is nicer to read as well.

Impact: fix wakeup_secondary_cpu with hotplug
We can not put that into x86_quirks, because that is __initdata.
So try to move that to genapic, and add update_genapic in x86_quirks.
later we even could use that stub to:
1. autodetect CONFIG_ES7000_CLUSTERED_APIC
2. more correct inquire_remote_apic with apic_verbosity setting.

Impact: fix secondary-CPU wakeup/init path with numaq and es7000
While looking at wakeup_secondary_cpu for WAKE_SECONDARY_VIA_NMI:
|#ifdef WAKE_SECONDARY_VIA_NMI
|/*
| * Poke the other CPU in the eye via NMI to wake it up. Remember that the normal
| * INIT, INIT, STARTUP sequence will reset the chip hard for us, and this
| * won't ... remember to clear down the APIC, etc later.
| */
|static int __devinit
|wakeup_secondary_cpu(int logical_apicid, unsigned long start_eip)
|{
| unsigned long send_status, accept_status = 0;
| int maxlvt;
|...
| if (APIC_INTEGRATED(apic_version[phys_apicid])) {
| maxlvt = lapic_get_maxlvt();
I noticed that there is no warning about undefined phys_apicid...
because WAKE_SECONDARY_VIA_NMI and WAKE_SECONDARY_VIA_INIT can not be
defined at the same time. So NUMAQ is using wrong wakeup_secondary_cpu.
WAKE_SECONDARY_VIA_NMI, WAKE_SECONDARY_VIA_INIT and
WAKE_SECONDARY_VIA_MIP are variants of a weird and fragile
preprocessor-driven "HAL" mechanisms to specify the kind of secondary-CPU
wakeup strategy a given x86 kernel will use.
The vast majority of systems want to use INIT for secondary wakeup - NUMAQ
uses an NMI, (old-style-) ES7000 uses 'MIP' (a firmware driven in-memory
flag to let secondaries continue).
So convert these mechanisms to x86_quirks and add a
->wakeup_secondary_cpu() method to specify the rare exception
to the sane default.
Extend genapic accordingly as well, for 32-bit.
While looking further, I noticed that functions in wakecup.h for numaq
and es7000 are different to the default in mach_wakecpu.h - but smpboot.c
will only use default mach_wakecpu.h with smphook.h.
So we need to add mach_wakecpu.h for mach_generic, to properly support
numaq and es7000, and vectorize the following SMP init methods:
int trampoline_phys_low;
int trampoline_phys_high;
void (*wait_for_init_deassert)(atomic_t *deassert);
void (*smp_callin_clear_local_apic)(void);
void (*store_NMI_vector)(unsigned short *high, unsigned short *low);
void (*restore_NMI_vector)(unsigned short *high, unsigned short *low);
void (*inquire_remote_apic)(int apicid);
