If a Guest makes hypercall which sets a GDT entry to not present, we currently set any segment registers using that GDT entry to 0. Unfortunately, this is not sufficient: there are other ways of altering GDT entries which will cause a fault. The correct solution to do what Linux does: let them set any GDT value they want and handle the #GP when popping causes a fault. This has the added benefit of making our Switcher slightly more robust in the case of any other bugs which cause it to fault. We kill the Guest if it causes a fault in the Switcher: it's the Guest's responsibility to make sure it's not using segments when it changes them.

lguest uses a host-supplied wallclock-based clocksource when the TSC is not reliable. As this is already in nanoseconds, I naively used a multiplier of 1 and a shift of 0. But update_wall_time() in its infinite wisdom decides to adjust the clock a little (where does it think it's getting a more accurate time from?) It will happily tweak the multiplier... to 0, then -1. So the "fix" is to use a shift of 22 like everyone else, and a multiplier of 1 << 22.

This reverts commit 0fc4969b. It was always meant to be temporary, but it's generating more useless noise than anything else, and we probably should never have done it in the generic kernel (only had the people involved test it on their own).

The check for audit_signals is misplaced and the check for audit_dummy_context() is missing; as the result, if we send a signal to auditd from task with NULL ->audit_context while we have audit_signals != 0 we end up with an oops.

SH boards in general only wire this up in 8 or 16-bit mode, and as we never had the wrappers for 32-bit mode defined, SMC_CAN_USE_32BIT caused build failure for the non-Solution Engine boards. This gets it building again. Also kill off the straggling set_irq_type() definition, this is left over cruft that was missed when the rest of it switched to IRQ flags.

More fallout from the writeback fixes: debug register transfer instructions do their own writeback and thus need to disable the general writeback mechanism.

Theory : though needless, it should not have hurt. Practice: it does not play nice with DEBUG_SHIRQ + LOCKDEP + UP (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=242572). The patch makes sense in itself but I should dig why it has an effect on #242572 (assuming that NAPI do not change in a near future).

Alan Cox suggested that the solution to the FIXMEs in pata_icside is to use a private postreset method to detect the lack of devices on a port, and in such a case, disable the interrupt for the port.
