Impact: slightly better code generation for percpu_to_op()
The processor will sign-extend 32-bit immediate values in 64-bit
operations. Use the 'e' constraint ("32-bit signed integer constant,
or a symbolic reference known to fit that range") for 64-bit constants.

Impact: x86_64 percpu area layout change, irq_stack now at the beginning
Now that the PDA is empty except for the stack canary, it can be removed.
The irqstack is moved to the start of the per-cpu section. If the stack
protector is enabled, the canary overlaps the bottom 48 bytes of the irqstack.
tj: * updated subject
* dropped asm relocation of irq_stack_ptr
* updated comments a bit
* rebased on top of stack canary changes

Accessing memory through %gs should not use rip-relative addressing.
Adding a P prefix for the argument tells gcc to not add (%rip) to
the memory references.

It is an optimization and a cleanup, and adds the following new
generic percpu methods:
percpu_read()
percpu_write()
percpu_add()
percpu_sub()
percpu_and()
percpu_or()
percpu_xor()
and implements support for them on x86. (other architectures will fall
back to a default implementation)
The advantage is that for example to read a local percpu variable,
instead of this sequence:
return __get_cpu_var(var);
ffffffff8102ca2b: 48 8b 14 fd 80 09 74 mov -0x7e8bf680(,%rdi,8),%rdx
ffffffff8102ca32: 81
ffffffff8102ca33: 48 c7 c0 d8 59 00 00 mov $0x59d8,%rax
ffffffff8102ca3a: 48 8b 04 10 mov (%rax,%rdx,1),%rax
We can get a single instruction by using the optimized variants:
return percpu_read(var);
ffffffff8102ca3f: 65 48 8b 05 91 8f fd mov %gs:0x7efd8f91(%rip),%rax
I also cleaned up the x86-specific APIs and made the x86 code use
these new generic percpu primitives.
tj: * fixed generic percpu_sub() definition as Roel Kluin pointed out
* added percpu_and() for completeness's sake
* made generic percpu ops atomic against preemption

pda is now a percpu variable and there's no reason it can't use plain
x86 percpu accessors. Add x86_test_and_clear_bit_percpu() and replace
pda op implementations with wrappers around x86 percpu accessors.

Now that pda is allocated as part of percpu, percpu doesn't need to be
accessed through pda. Unify x86_64 SMP percpu access with x86_32 SMP
one. Other than the segment register, operand size and the base of
percpu symbols, they behave identical now.
This patch replaces now unnecessary pda->data_offset with a dummy
field which is necessary to keep stack_canary at its place. This
patch also moves per_cpu_offset initialization out of init_gdt() into
setup_per_cpu_areas(). Note that this change also necessitates
explicit per_cpu_offset initializations in voyager_smp.c.
With this change, x86_OP_percpu()'s are as efficient on x86_64 as on
x86_32 and also x86_64 can use assembly PER_CPU macros.

[ Based on original patch from Christoph Lameter and Mike Travis. ]
Currently pdas and percpu areas are allocated separately. %gs points
to local pda and percpu area can be reached using pda->data_offset.
This patch folds pda into percpu area.
Due to strange gcc requirement, pda needs to be at the beginning of
the percpu area so that pda->stack_canary is at %gs:40. To achieve
this, a new percpu output section macro - PERCPU_VADDR_PREALLOC() - is
added and used to reserve pda sized chunk at the start of the percpu
area.
After this change, for boot cpu, %gs first points to pda in the
data.init area and later during setup_per_cpu_areas() gets updated to
point to the actual pda. This means that setup_per_cpu_areas() need
to reload %gs for CPU0 while clearing pda area for other cpus as cpu0
already has modified it when control reaches setup_per_cpu_areas().
This patch also removes now unnecessary get_local_pda() and its call
sites.
A lot of this patch is taken from Mike Travis' "x86_64: Fold pda into
per cpu area" patch.
