  • This patch moves the die notifier handling to common code. Previous
    various architectures had exactly the same code for it. Note that the new
    code is compiled unconditionally, this should be understood as an appel to
    the other architecture maintainer to implement support for it aswell (aka
    sprinkling a notify_die or two in the proper place)

    arm had a notifiy_die that did something totally different, I renamed it to
    arm_notify_die as part of the patch and made it static to the file it's
    declared and used at. avr32 used to pass slightly less information through
    this interface and I brought it into line with the other architectures.
