Commit f2b36db692 causes a bootup hang on
at least one machine. Revert for now until we understand why. The old
code may be ugly, but it works.

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.

Since early userspace was added, there's no way to override which init to
run from it. Some people tack on an extra cpio archive with a link from
/init depending on what they want to run, but that's sometimes impractical.
Changing the "init=" to also override the early userspace isn't feasible,
since it is still used to indicate what init to run from disk when early
userspace has completed doing whatever it's doing (i.e. load filesystem
modules and drivers).
Instead, introduce "rdinit=" and make it override the default "/init" if
specified.

I passed init=/mylinuxrc to the kernel on the command line. The kernel
silently dropped down to exec /sbin/init. It turned out that /mylinuxrc
had improper permissions. Without any warning message from the kernel that
something was wrong it took awhile to find the issue. The patch below adds
a warning.

This patch adds a new kernel debug feature: CONFIG_DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP.
When enabled then per-CPU watchdog threads are started, which try to run
once per second. If they get delayed for more than 10 seconds then a
callback from the timer interrupt detects this condition and prints out a
warning message and a stack dump (once per lockup incident). The feature
is otherwise non-intrusive, it doesnt try to unlock the box in any way, it
only gets the debug info out, automatically, and on all CPUs affected by
the lockup.

On system boot up, there was an failure reported to boot.msg:
<5>Trying to move old root to /initrd ... failed
According to initrd(4) man page, step #7 of BOOT-UP OPERATION
is described as below:
7. If the normal root file has directory /initrd, device
/dev/ram0 is moved from / to /initrd. Otherwise if
directory /initrd does not exist device /dev/ram0 is
unmounted.
We got service calls from customers concerning about this failure message
at boot time. Many systems do not have /initrd and thus the message can be
changed in the case of non-existing /initrd so that it does not sound like
a failure of the system.

This patch tweaks idle thread setup semantics a bit: instead of setting
NEED_RESCHED in init_idle(), we do an explicit schedule() before calling
into cpu_idle().
This patch, while having no negative side-effects, enables wider use of
cond_resched()s. (which might happen in the stock kernel too, but it's
particulary important for voluntary-preempt)

Issue:
Current tsc based delay_calibration can result in significant errors in
loops_per_jiffy count when the platform events like SMIs
(System Management Interrupts that are non-maskable) are present. This could
lead to potential kernel panic(). This issue is becoming more visible with 2.6
kernel (as default HZ is 1000) and on platforms with higher SMI handling
latencies. During the boot time, SMIs are mostly used by BIOS (for things
like legacy keyboard emulation).
Description:
The psuedocode for current delay calibration with tsc based delay looks like
(0) Estimate a value for loops_per_jiffy
(1) While (loops_per_jiffy estimate is accurate enough)
(2) wait for jiffy transition (jiffy1)
(3) Note down current tsc (tsc1)
(4) loop until tsc becomes tsc1 + loops_per_jiffy
(5) check whether jiffy changed since jiffy1 or not and refine
loops_per_jiffy estimate
Consider the following cases
Case 1:
If SMIs happen between (2) and (3) above, we can end up with a
loops_per_jiffy value that is too low. This results in shorted delays and
kernel can panic () during boot (Mostly at IOAPIC timer initialization
timer_irq_works() as we don't have enough timer interrupts in a specified
interval).
Case 2:
If SMIs happen between (3) and (4) above, then we can end up with a
loops_per_jiffy value that is too high. And with current i386 code, too
high lpj value (greater than 17M) can result in a overflow in
delay.c:__const_udelay() again resulting in shorter delay and panic().
Solution:
The patch below makes the calibration routine aware of asynchronous events
like SMIs. We increase the delay calibration time and also identify any
significant errors (greater than 12.5%) in the calibration and notify it to
user.
Patch below changes both i386 and x86-64 architectures to use this
new and improved calibrate_delay_direct() routine.

This patch modifies the way pagesets in struct zone are managed.
Each zone has a per-cpu array of pagesets. So any particular CPU has some
memory in each zone structure which belongs to itself. Even if that CPU is
not local to that zone.
So the patch relocates the pagesets for each cpu to the node that is nearest
to the cpu instead of allocating the pagesets in the (possibly remote) target
zone. This means that the operations to manage pages on remote zone can be
done with information available locally.
We play a macro trick so that non-NUMA pmachines avoid the additional
pointer chase on the page allocator fastpath.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
