Run idle threads with preempt disabled.
Also corrected a bugs in arm26's cpu_idle (make it actually call schedule()).
How did it ever work before?
Might fix the CPU hotplugging hang which Nigel Cunningham noted.
We think the bug hits if the idle thread is preempted after checking
need_resched() and before going to sleep, then the CPU offlined.
After calling stop_machine_run, the CPU eventually returns from preemption and
into the idle thread and goes to sleep. The CPU will continue executing
previous idle and have no chance to call play_dead.
By disabling preemption until we are ready to explicitly schedule, this bug is
fixed and the idle threads generally become more robust.

Some architectures define and use this type in their compat_ioctl code, but
all of them can easily use the identical ioctl_trans_handler_t type that is
defined in common code.

o Coding style: remove typedefs.
o Coding style: reorder to avoid the need for forward declarations
o Use kzalloc.

The sys_ptrace boilerplate code (everything outside the big switch
statement for the arch-specific requests) is shared by most architectures.
This patch moves it to kernel/ptrace.c and leaves the arch-specific code as
arch_ptrace.
Some architectures have a too different ptrace so we have to exclude them.
They continue to keep their implementations. For sh64 I had to add a
sh64_ptrace wrapper because it does some initialization on the first call.
For um I removed an ifdefed SUBARCH_PTRACE_SPECIAL block, but
SUBARCH_PTRACE_SPECIAL isn't defined anywhere in the tree.

task_struct is an internal structure to the kernel with a lot of good
information, that is probably interesting in core dumps. However there is
no way for user space to know what format that information is in making it
useless.
I grepped the GDB 6.3 source code and NT_TASKSTRUCT while defined is not
used anywhere else. So I would be surprised if anyone notices it is
missing.
In addition exporting kernel pointers to all the interesting kernel data
structures sounds like the very definition of an information leak. I
haven't a clue what someone with evil intentions could do with that
information, but in any attack against the kernel it looks like this is the
perfect tool for aiming that attack.
So since NT_TASKSTRUCT is useless as currently defined and is potentially
dangerous, let's just not export it.
(akpm: Daniel Jacobowitz <[email protected]> "would be amazed" if anything was
using NT_TASKSTRUCT).

How is anon_rss initialized? In dup_mmap, and by mm_alloc's memset; but
that's not so good if an mm_counter_t is a special type. And how is rss
initialized? By set_mm_counter, all over the place. Come on, we just need to
initialize them both at once by set_mm_counter in mm_init (which follows the
memcpy when forking).
