Ease the deployment of clkdev by providing a default asm/clkdev.h for
use if the arch does not have an include/asm/clkdev.h.
Due to limitations in Kbuild we manually add clkdev.h to all
architectures that don't have one rather than having the header appear
by default.

Make default just return 0. The current default (checking
TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG) is taken to architectures that need it;
ones that don't do polling in their idle threads don't need
to defined TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG at all.
ia64 defined both TS_POLLING (used by its tsk_is_polling())
and TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG (not used at all). Killed the latter...

Pull KVM changes from Avi Kivity:
"Changes include additional instruction emulation, page-crossing MMIO,
faster dirty logging, preventing the watchdog from killing a stopped
guest, module autoload, a new MSI ABI, and some minor optimizations
and fixes. Outside x86 we have a small s390 and a very large ppc
update.
Regarding the new (for kvm) rebaseless workflow, some of the patches
that were merged before we switch trees had to be rebased, while
others are true pulls. In either case the signoffs should be correct
now."

Pull fpu state cleanups from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree streamlines further aspects of FPU handling by eliminating
the prepare_to_copy() complication and moving that logic to
arch_dup_task_struct().
It also fixes the FPU dumps in threaded core dumps, removes and old
(and now invalid) assumption plus micro-optimizes the exit path by
avoiding an FPU save for dead tasks."
Fixed up trivial add-add conflict in arch/sh/kernel/process.c that came
in because we now do the FPU handling in arch_dup_task_struct() rather
than the legacy (and now gone) prepare_to_copy().

The current __swp_type() function uses a too small bitshift.
Using more than one swap files causes bad pages because
the type bits clash with other page flags.

UML uses the _PAGE_NEWPAGE flag to mark pages which are not jet
installed on the host side using mmap().
pte_same() has to ignore this flag, otherwise unuse_pte_range()
is unable to unuse the page because two identical
page tables entries with different _PAGE_NEWPAGE flags would not
match and swapoff() would never return.

Historical prepare_to_copy() is mostly a no-op, duplicated for majority of
the architectures and the rest following the x86 model of flushing the extended
register state like fpu there.
Remove it and use the arch_dup_task_struct() instead.

Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells:
"Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of
separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion
dependencies.
I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can
and made sure that they don't break.
The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular
dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to
optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2().
This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in
asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h.
The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of
low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg.
memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that
aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()).
These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces:
(1) asm/barrier.h
Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha.
(2) asm/switch_to.h
Move switch_to() and related stuff here.
(3) asm/exec.h
Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits
could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h.
(4) asm/cmpxchg.h
Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and
frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg().
(5) asm/bug.h
Move die() and related bits.
(6) asm/auxvec.h
Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.
Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."
Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code
around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat
weakened by that. We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it..

it's x86-only and we have no business playing with it in asm/mmu.h; make
the latter have

instead of
struct uml_ldt ldt;
and let arch/<subarch>/um/asm/mm_context.h decide what'll be in there.
While we are at it, kill host_ldt.h - it's not needed in part of places
that include it (we want asm/ldt.h in those) and it can be trivially
expanded into the single remaining one.
