Commit "timekeeping: Fix clock_gettime vsyscall time warp" (0696b711e)
introduced the new parameter "mult" to update_vsyscall(). This parameter
contains the internal NTP adjusted clock multiplier.
The s390x vdso did not use this adjusted multiplier. Instead, it used
the constant clock multiplier for gettimeofday() and clock_gettime()
variants. This may result in observable time warps as explained in
commit 0696b711e.
Make the NTP adjusted clock multiplier available to the s390x vdso
implementation and use it for time calculations.

Use asm offsets to make sure the offset defines to struct _lowcore and
its layout don't get out of sync.
Also add a BUILD_BUG_ON() which checks that the size of the structure
is sane.
And while being at it change those sites which use odd casts to access
the current lowcore. These should use S390_lowcore instead.

Drop support to compile the kernel with gcc versions older than 3.3.3.
This allows us to use the "Q" inline assembly contraint on some more
inline assemblies without duplicating a lot of complex code (e.g. __xchg
and __cmpxchg). The distinction for older gcc versions can be removed
which saves a few lines and simplifies the code.

Currently, when the physical resume CPU is not equal to the physical suspend
CPU, we swap the CPUs logically, by modifying the logical/physical CPU mapping.
This has two major drawbacks: First the change is visible from user space (e.g.
CPU sysfs files) and second it is hard to ensure that nowhere in the kernel
the physical CPU ID is stored before suspend.
To fix this, we now really swap the physical CPUs, if the resume CPU is not
the pysical suspend CPU. We restart the suspend CPU and stop the resume CPU
using SIGP restart and SIGP stop. If the suspend CPU is no longer available,
we write a message and load a disabled wait PSW.

The extract cpu time instruction (ectg) instruction allows the user
process to get the current thread cputime without calling into the
kernel. The code that uses the instruction needs to switch to the
access registers mode to get access to the per-cpu info page that
contains the two base values that are needed to calculate the current
cputime from the CPU timer with the ectg instruction.

CLOCK_REALTIME/CLOCK_MONOTONIC.

syscall_get_nr() currently returns a valid result only if the call
chain of the traced process includes do_syscall_trace_enter(). But
collect_syscall() can be called for any sleeping task, the result of
syscall_get_nr() in general is completely bogus.
To make syscall_get_nr() work for any sleeping task the traps field
in pt_regs is replace with svcnr - the system call number the process
is executing. If svcnr == 0 the process is not on a system call path.
The syscall_get_arguments and syscall_set_arguments use regs->gprs[2]
for the first system call parameter. This is incorrect since gprs[2]
may have been overwritten with the system call number if the call
chain includes do_syscall_trace_enter. Use regs->orig_gprs2 instead.

New version that does not preserve the marker. Arch maintainers indicate
that the marker functionality is is not needed anymore.
Note you may simplify the s390 asm-offsets.c code further if you use the
OFFSET() macro instead of the DEFINE. See kbuild.h

s390 has a strange marker in DEFINE. Undefine the DEFINE from kbuild.h and
define it the way s390 wants it to preserve things as they were.
May be good if the arch maintainer could go over this and check if this
workaround is really necessary.

This finally renames the thread_info field in task structure to stack, so that
the assumptions about this field are gone and archs have more freedom about
placing the thread_info structure.
Nonbroken archs which have a proper thread pointer can do the access to both
current thread and task structure via a single pointer.
It'll allow for a few more cleanups of the fork code, from which e.g. ia64
could benefit.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
