This patch uses the updated boot protocol to do paravirtualized boot.
If the boot version is >= 2.07, then it will do two things:1. Check the bootparams loadflags to see if we should reload the
segment registers and clear interrupts. This is appropriate
for normal native boot and some paravirtualized environments, but
inapproprate for others.2. Check the hardware architecture, and dispatch to the appropriate
kernel entrypoint. If the bootloader doesn't set this, then we
simply do the normal boot sequence.Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge

Updates for version 2.07 of the boot protocol. This includes:
load_flags.KEEP_SEGMENTS- flag to request/inhibit segment reloads
hardware_subarch - what subarchitecture we're booting under
hardware_subarch_data - per-architecture dataThe intention of these changes is to make booting a paravirtualized
kernel work via the normal Linux boot protocol.Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge

force irq_flags into the .data section by initializing it to
the hardware masks that cannot be disabled. this way if we
use irq enable/disable functions before the .bss has been
zeroed out (as does our l1 relocate/dma functions), we dont
hit a problem where bss contains bogus crap.Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger

We must balance calls to get_task_mm with corresponding mmput calls, otherwise
refcounting is screwed up and mms don't get freed when their task exits.Signed-off-by: Bryan Wu

Fix up /proc/cpuinfo so it is like everyone else, and gets
parsed by various applications properly. Still needs some tweaking on
parts without full L1 sram, like 532, 531, so it doesn't print out L1
bank info that doesn't exist.Signed-off-by: Robin Getz

Commit 9a39e273d4df0560c724c5fe71f6314a0583ca2b removed the boot directory
addition to CFLAGS that was being used by the subdirectory builds. For the
other files, that patch set EXTRA_CFLAGS, but Makefile.build explicitly
sets that to empty as it is explicitly for a single directory only.
Append to KBUILD_CFLAGS instead.Signed-off-by: Milton Miller

Most of these fixes were already submitted for old kernel versions, and were
approved, but for some reason they never made it into the releases.Because this is a consolidation of a couple old missed patches, it touches both
