First patch in a series to implement a generic priority inheritance
framework that can be used by semaphores that use priority inheritance.
This patch makes pi_semaphore a 'base class' for pi-protocols. pi_semaphore
is updated to include a pi_sem_record field named stack_node. This stack_node
is a linked-list node that a task holding the pi_semaphore instance adds to
their semaphore stack. Note that the task's semaphore stack (or linked-list)
simply chains stack_node's of held semaphores into a single linked-list.
This is safe since there is only one semaphore holder at any given moment.
Finally, FMLP-specific data members out to child class fmlp_semaphore.

If no events are defined but Feater-Trace support is enabled, then the current
implementation generates a link error because the __event_table sections is
absent.

As a simple work around, we force zero-element array to always be "allocated"
in the __event_table section. This ensures that we end up with a zero-byte
section if no events are enabled, and does not affect the layout of the section
if events are present.

Feather-Trace rewrites instructions in the kernel's .text segment.
This segment may be write-protected if CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is selected.
In this case, fall back to the default flag-based Feather-Trace
implementation. In the future, we could either adopt the ftrace method
of rewriting .text addresses using non-.text mappings or we could
consider replacing Feather-Trace with ftrace altogether.
For now, this patch avoids unexpected runtime errors.

The PFAIR plugin always implicitly assumed !NO_HZ (the schedule
is wrong if NO_HZ is enabled) and does not built if hrtimers are absent:
> litmus/built-in.o: In function `pfair_activate_plugin':
> sched_pfair.c:(.text+0x7f07): undefined reference to `cpu_stagger_offset'
> litmus/built-in.o: In function `init_pfair':
> sched_pfair.c:(.init.text+0x487): undefined reference to `cpu_stagger_offset'
cpu_stagger_offset() is only available if hrtimers are enabled.
This patch makes these dependencies explicit.

C-EDF depends on intel_cacheinfo.c (for get_shared_cpu_map()) which is
only available on x86 architectures. Furthermore, get_shared_cpu_map()
is only available if SYSFS filesystem is present.

There is currently no need to implement this in ARM.
So let's make it optional instead.

Introduces CONFIG_RELEASE_MASTER and makes release
master support dependent on the new symbol. This is
useful because dedicated interrupt handling only applies
to "large" multicore platforms. This will allow us to
not implement smp_send_pull_timers() for all platforms.

C-EDF only makes sense on multicore platforms that have shared caches.
Make it possible to disable it on other platforms, in particular,
on those that do not export get_shared_cpu_map().

Re-introduce NP sections in the configuration and in litmus.h. Remove the old
np_flag from rt_param.
If CONFIG_NP_SECTION is disabled, then all non-preemptive section checks are
constant expressions which should get removed by the dead code elimination
during optimization.
Instead of re-implementing sys_exit_np(), we simply repurposed sched_yield()
for calling into the scheduler to trigger delayed preemptions.

Port 2008.3 Core LITMUS^RT infrastructure to Linux 2.6.32
litmus_sched_class implements 4 new methods:
- prio_changed:
void
- switched_to:
void
- get_rr_interval:
return infinity (i.e., 0)
- select_task_rq:
return current cpu
