Mathieu Desnoyers revealed a bug in the original code. The nop that is
used to relpace the mcount caller can be a two part nop. This runs the
risk where a process can be preempted after executing the first nop, but
before the second part of the nop.
The ftrace code calls kstop_machine to keep multiple CPUs from executing
code that is being modified, but it does not protect against a task preempting
in the middle of a two part nop.
If the above preemption happens and the tracer is enabled, after the
kstop_machine runs, all those nops will be calls to the trace function.
If the preempted process that was preempted between the two nops is executed
again, it will execute half of the call to the trace function, and this
might crash the system.
This patch instead uses what both the latest Intel and AMD spec suggests.
That is the P6_NOP5 sequence of "0x0f 0x1f 0x44 0x00 0x00".
Note, some older CPUs and QEMU might fault on this nop, so this nop
is executed with fault handling first. If it detects a fault, it will then
use the code "0x66 0x66 0x66 0x66 0x90". If that faults, it will then
default to a simple "jmp 1f; .byte 0x00 0x00 0x00; 1:". The jmp is
not optimal but will do if the first two can not be executed.
TODO: Examine the cpuid to determine the nop to use.

x86 now sets up the mcount locations through the build and no longer
needs to record the ip when the function is executed. This patch changes
the initial mcount to simply return. There's no need to do any other work.
If the ftrace start up test fails, the original mcount will be what everything
will use, so having this as fast as possible is a good thing.

This requires three changes:
1) Remove !SPARC restriction in Kconfig.
2) Move Sparc specific serial drivers before 8250, so that serial
console devices don't change names on us, even if 8250 finds
devices.
3) Since the Sparc specific serial drivers try to use the
same major/minor device namespace as 8250, some coordination
is necessary. Use the sunserial_*() layer routines to allocate
minor number space within TTY_MAJOR when CONFIG_SPARC.
This has no effect on other platforms.
Thanks to Josip Rodin for bringing up this issue and testing
plus debugging various revisions of this patch.

x86: allow number of additional hotplug CPUs to be set at compile time, V2
The default number of additional CPU IDs for hotplugging is determined
by asking ACPI or mptables how many "disabled" CPUs there are in the
system, but many systems get this wrong so that e.g. a uniprocessor
machine gets an extra CPU allocated and never switches to single CPU
mode.
And sometimes CPU hotplugging is enabled only for suspend/hibernate
anyway, so the additional CPU IDs are not wanted. Allow the number
to be set to zero at compile time.
Also, force the number of extra CPUs to zero if hotplugging is disabled
which allows removing some conditional code.
Tested on uniprocessor x86_64 that ACPI claims has a disabled processor,
with CPU hotplugging configured.
("After" has the number of additional CPUs set to 0)
Before: NR_CPUS: 512, nr_cpu_ids: 2, nr_node_ids 1
After: NR_CPUS: 512, nr_cpu_ids: 1, nr_node_ids 1

The flag_is_changeable_p() is used by
has_cpuid_p() which can return different results
in the code sequence below:
if (!have_cpuid_p())
identify_cpu_without_cpuid(c);
/* cyrix could have cpuid enabled via c_identify()*/
if (!have_cpuid_p())
return;
Otherwise, the gcc 3.4.6 optimizes these two calls
into one which make the code not working correctly.
Cyrix cpus have the CPUID instruction enabled before
the second call to the have_cpuid_p() but
it is not detected due to the gcc optimization.
Thus the ARR registers (mtrr like) are not detected
on such a cpu.
