In dwarf2_32.h, test for CONFIG_AS_CFI instead of
CONFIG_UNWIND_INFO. Turns out that searching for UNWIND_INFO
returns no match in any Kconfig or Makefile, so we're really
just throwing everything away regarding dwarf frames for i386.
The test that generates CONFIG_AS_CFI does not have anything
x86_64-specific, and right now, checking V=1 builds shows me
that the flags is there anyway, although unused.

i spent a fair amount of time chasing a 64-bit bootup crash that manifested
itself as bootup segfaults:

eventually causing init to die and panic the system:

| x86: remove open-coded save/load segment operations
|
| This removes a pile of buggy open-coded implementations of savesegment
| and loadsegment.
after some more bisection of this patch itself, it turns out that what
makes the difference are the savesegment() changes to __switch_to().
Taking a look at this portion of arch/x86/kernel/process_64.o revealed
this crutial difference:
| good: 99c: 8c e0 mov %fs,%eax
| 99e: 89 45 cc mov %eax,-0x34(%rbp)
|
| bad: 99c: 8c 65 cc mov %fs,-0x34(%rbp)
which is due to:
| unsigned fsindex;
| - asm volatile("movl %%fs,%0" : "=r" (fsindex));
| + savesegment(fs, fsindex);
savesegment() is implemented as:
#define savesegment(seg, value) \
asm("mov %%" #seg ",%0":"=rm" (value) : : "memory")
note the "m" modifier - it allows GCC to generate the segment move
into a memory operand as well.
But regarding segment operands there's a subtle detail in the x86
instruction set: the above 16-bit moves are zero-extend, but only
if it goes to a register.
If it goes to a memory operand, -0x34(%rbp) in the above case, there's
no zero-extend to 32-bit and the instruction will only save 16 bits
instead of the intended 32-bit.
The other 16 bits is random data - which can cause problems when that
value is used later on.
The solution is to only allow segment operands to go to registers.
This fix allows my test-system to boot up without crashing.

The problems are that, with the ACPI vs timer overring issue _fixed_,
after using the box for some time (between several seconds and 1 hour, at
random) processes get very high CPU loads (once I've got X using 107% of
the CPU, for example) and the system becomes unresponsive, as though there
were interrupts lost or something similar.

So lets fall back to the IRQ0/INT0 configuration on this box.
This basically restores the dont-use-the-lapic-timer exception mechanism
