Most of asm-i386/bugs.h is code which should be in a C file, so put it there.

Clean up sched_clock() on i686: it will use the TSC if available and falls
back to jiffies only if the user asked for it to be disabled via notsc or
the CPU calibration code didnt figure out the right cpu_khz.
This generally makes the scheduler timestamps more finegrained, on all
hardware. (the current scheduler is pretty resistant against asynchronous
sched_clock() values on different CPUs, it will allow at most up to a jiffy
of jitter.)
Also simplify sched_clock()'s check for TSC availability: propagate the
desire and ability to use the TSC into the tsc_disable flag, previously
this flag only indicated whether the notsc option was passed. This makes
the rare low-res sched_clock() codepath a single branch off a read-mostly
flag.

Allow selected bug checks to be skipped by paravirt kernels. The two most
important are the F00F workaround (which is either done by the hypervisor,
or not required), and the 'hlt' instruction check, which can break under
some hypervisors.

In some places, particularly drivers and __init code, the init utsns is the
appropriate one to use. This patch replaces those with a the init_utsname
helper.
Changes: Removed several uses of init_utsname(). Hope I picked all the
right ones in net/ipv4/ipconfig.c. These are now changed to
utsname() (the per-process namespace utsname) in the previous
patch (2/7)

Move some code unrelated to any dealing with hardware bugs from i386's

i386 Inline asm cleanup. Use cr/dr accessor functions.
Also, a potential bugfix. Also, some CR accessors really should be volatile.
Reads from CR0 (numeric state may change in an exception handler), writes to
CR4 (flipping CR4.TSD) and reads from CR2 (page fault) prevent instruction
re-ordering. I did not add memory clobber to CR3 / CR4 / CR0 updates, as it
was not there to begin with, and in no case should kernel memory be clobbered,
except when doing a TLB flush, which already has memory clobber.
I noticed that page invalidation does not have a memory clobber. I can't find
a bug as a result, but there is definitely a potential for a bug here:
#define __flush_tlb_single(addr) \
__asm__ __volatile__("invlpg %0": :"m" (*(char *) addr))

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!
