Partial revert of commit 129d8bc828e011bda0b7110a097bf3a0167f966e
titled 'x86: don't compile vsmp_64 for 32bit'
Commit reverted to compile vsmp_64.c if CONFIG_X86_64 is defined,
since is_vsmp_box() needs to indicate that TSCs are not synchronized, and
hence, not a valid time source, even when CONFIG_X86_VSMP is not defined.

Impact: get correct smp_affinity as user requested
The effect of setting desc->affinity (ie. from userspace via sysfs) has
varied over time. In 2.6.27, the 32-bit code anded the value with
cpu_online_map, and both 32 and 64-bit did that anding whenever a cpu
was unplugged.
2.6.29 consolidated this into one routine (and fixed hotplug) but
introduced another variation: anding the affinity with cfg->domain.
We should just set it to what the user said - if possible.
(cpu_mask_to_apicid_and already takes cpu_online_mask into account)

Tetsuo Handa reported this link bug:
| arch/x86/mm/built-in.o(.init.text+0x1831): In function `early_ioremap_init':
| : undefined reference to `__this_fixmap_does_not_exist'
| make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1
Commit:8827247ffcc9e880cbe4705655065cf011265157 used a variable (which
would be optimized to constant) as fix_to_virt()'s parameter.
It's depended on gcc's optimization and fails on old gcc. (Tetsuo used gcc 3.3)
We can use __fix_to_vir() instead, because we know it's safe and
don't need link time error reporting.

Eric pointed out that desc->affinity should be what the user requested,
if it is at all possible to honor the user space request.
This bug got introduced by commit 22f65d31b "x86: Update io_apic.c to use
new cpumask API".
Fix it by moving the masking to before the descriptor moving ...

While looking at the issue in the thread:
http://marc.info/?l=dri-devel&m=123606627824556&w=2
noticed a bug in pci PAT code and memory type setting.
PCI mmap code did not set the proper protection in vma, when it
inherited protection in reserve_memtype. This bug only affects
the case where there exists a WC mapping before X does an mmap
with /proc or /sys pci interface. This will cause X userlevel
mmap from /proc or /sysfs to fail on fork.

Impact: section mismatch fix
Ingo reports these warnings:

> The function dmi_alloc() references

dmi_alloc() is a static inline, and so should be immune to this
kind of error. But force it to be inlined and make it __init
anyway, just to be extra sure.
All of dmi_alloc()'s callers are already __init.

This reverts commit 698609bdcd35d0641f4c6622c83680ab1a6d67cb.
69860 breaks Xen booting, as it relies on head*.S to set up the fixmap
pagetables (as a side-effect of initializing the USB debug port).
Xen, however, does not boot via head*.S, and so the fixmap area is
not initialized.
The specific symptom of the crash is a fault in dmi_scan(), because
the pointer that early_ioremap returns is not actually present.

When you compile kernel on Sparc64 with heap memory checking and type
"cat /proc/iomem", you get a crash, because pointers in struct
resource are uninitialized.
Most code fills struct resource with zeros, so I assume that it is
responsibility of the caller of request_resource to initialized it,
not the responsibility of request_resource functuion.
After 2.6.29 is out, there could be a check for uninitialized fields
added to request_resource to avoid crashes like this.

Make page table walking on s390 more robust. The current code requires
that the pgd/pud/pmd/pte loop is only done for address ranges that are
below the end address of the last vma of the address space. But this
is not always true, e.g. the generic page table walker does not guarantee
this. Change TASK_SIZE/TASK_SIZE_OF to reflect the current size of the
address space. This makes the generic page table walker happy but it
breaks the upgrade of a 3 level page table to a 4 level page table.
To make the upgrade work again another fix is required.

pfn_valid() actually checks for a valid struct page and not for a
valid pfn. Using xip mappings w/o struct pages, this will result in
-EFAULT returned by the (page table walk) user copy functions,
even though there is valid memory. Those user copy functions don't
need a struct page, so this patch just removes the pfn_valid() check.
