Sam Ravnborg f05a68653e sparc: drop use of extern for prototypes in arch/sparc/include/asm
Drop extern for all prototypes and adjust alignment of parameters
as required after the removal.
In a few rare cases adjust linelength to conform to maximum 80 chars,
and likewise in a few rare cases adjust alignment of parameters
to static functions.

David S. Miller 08cefa9fa7 sparc64: Future proof Niagara cpu detection.
Recognize T4 and T5 chips.  Treating them both as "T2 plus other
stuff" should be extremely safe and make sure distributions will work
when those chips actually ship to customers.

David S. Miller 4ba991d3eb sparc: Detect and handle UltraSPARC-T3 cpu types.
The cpu compatible string we look for is "SPARC-T3".

As far as memset/memcpy optimizations go, we treat this chip the same
as Niagara-T2/T2+.  Use cache initializing stores for memset, and use
perfetch, FPU block loads, cache initializing stores, and block stores
for copies.

We use the Niagara-T2 perf support, since T3 is a close relative in
this regard.  Later we'll add support for the new events T3 can
report, plus enable T3's new "sample" mode.

For now I haven't added any new ELF hwcap flags.  We probably need
to add a couple, for example:

T2 and T3 both support the population count instruction in hardware.

T3 supports VIS3 instructions, including support (finally) for
partitioned shift.  One can also now move directly between float
and integer registers.

T3 supports instructions meant to help with Galois Field and other HPC
calculations, such as XOR multiply.  Also there are "OP and negate"
instructions, for example "fnmul" which is multiply-and-negate.

T3 recognizes the transactional memory opcodes, however since
transactional memory isn't supported: 1) 'commit' behaves as a NOP and
2) 'chkpt' always branches 3) 'rdcps' returns all zeros and 4) 'wrcps'
behaves as a NOP.

So we'll need about 3 new elf capability flags in the end to represent
all of these things.

Sam Ravnborg a439fe51a1 sparc, sparc64: use arch/sparc/include
The majority of this patch was created by the following script:

***
ASM=arch/sparc/include/asm
mkdir -p $ASM
git mv include/asm-sparc64/ftrace.h $ASM
git rm include/asm-sparc64/*
git mv include/asm-sparc/* $ASM
sed -ie 's/asm-sparc64/asm/g' $ASM/*
sed -ie 's/asm-sparc/asm/g' $ASM/*
***

The rest was an update of the top-level Makefile to use sparc
for header files when sparc64 is being build.
And a small fixlet to pick up the correct unistd.h from
sparc64 code.
