So:
- use 'extern' consistently for APIs
- fix weird header guard
- clarify code comments
- reorder APIs by type

We have a special segment descriptor entry in the GDT, whose sole purpose is to
encode the CPU and node numbers in its limit (size) field. There are user-space
instructions that allow the reading of the limit field, which gives us a really
fast way to read the CPU and node IDs from the vDSO for example.
But the naming of related functionality does not make this clear, at all:
VDSO_CPU_SIZE
VDSO_CPU_MASK
__CPU_NUMBER_SEG
GDT_ENTRY_CPU_NUMBER
vdso_encode_cpu_node
vdso_read_cpu_node
There's a number of problems:
- The 'VDSO_CPU_SIZE' doesn't really make it clear that these are number
of bits, nor does it make it clear which 'CPU' this refers to, i.e.
that this is about a GDT entry whose limit encodes the CPU and node number.
- Furthermore, the 'CPU_NUMBER' naming is actively misleading as well,
because the segment limit encodes not just the CPU number but the
node ID as well ...
So use a better nomenclature all around: name everything related to this trick
as 'CPUNODE', to make it clear that this is something special, and add
_BITS to make it clear that these are number of bits, and propagate this to
every affected name:
VDSO_CPU_SIZE => VDSO_CPUNODE_BITS
VDSO_CPU_MASK => VDSO_CPUNODE_MASK
__CPU_NUMBER_SEG => __CPUNODE_SEG
GDT_ENTRY_CPU_NUMBER => GDT_ENTRY_CPUNODE
vdso_encode_cpu_node => vdso_encode_cpunode
vdso_read_cpu_node => vdso_read_cpunode
This, beyond being less confusing, also makes it easier to grep for all related
functionality:
$ git grep -i cpunode arch/x86
Also, while at it, fix "return is not a function" style sloppiness in vdso_encode_cpunode().

Clean up the CPU/node number related code a bit, to make it more apparent
how we are encoding/extracting the CPU and node fields from the
segment limit.
No change in functionality intended.
