It is dangerous to shutdown the apics in machine_crash_shutdown.

With my previous patch to initialize apics in init_IRQ we should be able to
boot a kernel without this.  As long as we reinitialize the APICs we don't
care what state they were in during bootup.

This should make machine_crash_shutdown noticeably more reliable.

All kinds of ugliness exists because we don't initialize
the apics during init_IRQs.
- We calibrate jiffies in non apic mode even when we are using apics.
- We have to have special code to initialize the apics when non-smp.
- The legacy i8259 must exist and be setup correctly, even
  when we won't use it past initialization.
- The kexec on panic code must restore the state of the io_apics.
- init/main.c needs a special case for !smp smp_init on x86

In addition to pure code movement I needed a couple
of non-obvious changes:
- Move setup_boot_APIC_clock into APIC_late_time_init for
  simplicity.
- Use cpu_khz to generate a better approximation of loops_per_jiffies
  so I can verify the timer interrupt is working.
- Call setup_apic_nmi_watchdog again after cpu_khz is initialized on
  the boot cpu.

The per cpu nmi watchdog timer is based on an event counter.  idle cpus
don't generate events so the NMI watchdog doesn't fire and the test to see
if the watchdog is working fails.

- Add nmi_cpu_busy so idle cpus don't mess up the test.
- kmalloc prev_nmi_count to keep kernel stack usage bounded.
- Improve the error message on failure so there is enough
  information to debug problems.

Currently we attempt to restore virtual wire mode on reboot, which only
works if we can figure out where the i8259 is connected.  This is very
useful when we kexec another kernel and likely helpful when dealing with a
BIOS that make assumptions about how the system is setup.

Since the acpi MADT table does not provide the location where the i8259 is
connected we have to look at the hardware to figure it out.

Most systems have the i8259 connected the local apic of the cpu so won't be
affected but people running Opteron and some serverworks chipsets should be
able to use kexec now.

In addition this patch removes the hard coded assumption that the io_apic
that delivers isa interrups is always known to the kernel as io_apic 0.  As
there does not appear to be anything to guarantee that assumption is true.

This was reported because someone was getting oopses reading /proc/iomem.
It was tracked down to a zero-sized 'struct resource' entry which was
located right at 4GB.

You need two conditions to hit this bug: a BIOS E820_RAM area starting at
exactly the boundary where you specify mem= (to get a zero-sized entry),
and for the legacy_init_iomem_resources() loop to skip that resource (which
only happens at exactly 4G).

I think the killing zero-sized e820 entry is the easiest way to fix this.

I just found out that some precision is unnecessarily lost in the

cpu_mhz parameter when it could use a cpu_khz.  In the specific case of an
Intel P4 running at 3001.171 Mhz, the truncation to 3001 Mhz leads to an
imprecision of 19 microseconds per second : this is very sad for a timer with
nearly nanosecond accuracy.

Fix the x86_64 architecture too.

This patch allows SELinux to canonicalize the value returned from
getxattr() via the security_inode_getsecurity() hook, which is called after
the fs level getxattr() function.

The purpose of this is to allow the in-core security context for an inode
to override the on-disk value.  This could happen in cases such as
upgrading a system to a different labeling form (e.g.  standard SELinux to
MLS) without needing to do a full relabel of the filesystem.

In such cases, we want getxattr() to return the canonical security context
that the kernel is using rather than what is stored on disk.

The implementation hooks into the inode_getsecurity(), adding another
parameter to indicate the result of the preceding fs-level getxattr() call,
so that SELinux knows whether to compare a value obtained from disk with
the kernel value.

We also now allow getxattr() to work for mountpoint labeled filesystems
(i.e.  mount with option context=foo_t), as we are able to return the
kernel value to the user.

A few drivers were not following the standard meme of printing out
their driver name and version at module load time; this is fixed
as well.

ata_pci_init_one() receives an array of struct ata_port_info.  Recent
updates to the code had always obtained port information from
array element 0, rather than array element N.

Change to avoid hardcoding port_info[0], thereby restoring proper
hardware information to secondary legacy ports.

The second argument to ata_qc_complete() was being used for two
purposes: communicate the ATA Status register to the completion
function, and indicate an error.  On legacy PCI IDE hardware, the latter
is often implicit in the former.  On more modern hardware, the driver
often completely emulated a Status register value, passing ATA_ERR as an
indication that something went wrong.

Now that previous code changes have eliminated the need to use drv_stat
arg to communicate the ATA Status register value, we can convert it to a
mask of possible error classes.

This will lead to more flexible error handling in the future.

Policy contextualization is only useful for task based policies and not for
vma based policies.  It may be useful to define allowed nodes that are not
accessible from this thread because other threads may have access to these
nodes.  Without this patch strange memory policy situations may cause an
application to fail with out of memory.

Example:

Let's say we have two threads A and B that share the same address space and
a huge array computational array X.

Thread A is restricted by its cpuset to nodes 0 and 1 and thread B is
restricted by its cpuset to nodes 2 and 3.

Thread A now wants to restrict allocations to the first node and thus
applies a BIND policy on X to node 0 and 2.  The cpuset limits this to node
0.  Thus pages for X must be allocated on node 0 now.

Thread B now touches a page that has never been used in X and faults in a
page.  According to the BIND policy of the vma for X the page must be
allocated on page 0.  However, the cpuset of B does not allow allocation on
0 and 1.  Now the application fails in alloc_pages with out of memory.
