The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
This removes all the arch/sparc uses of the __cpuinit macros from
C files and removes __CPUINIT from assembly files. Note that even
though arch/sparc/kernel/trampoline_64.S has instances of ".previous"
in it, they are all paired off against explicit ".section" directives,
and not implicitly paired with __CPUINIT (unlike mips and arm were).

Introduce a common smp_callin() function to call
from trampoline_32.S.
Add platform specific functions to handle the
platform details.
This is in preparation for a patch that will
unify the smp boot stuff for all architectures.
sparc32 was significantly different to warrant
this patch in preparation.

This is the last non-trivial user of btfixup.
Like sparc64, use a special patch section to resolve the various
implementations of how to read the current CPU's ID when we don't
have current_thread_info()->cpu necessarily available.

o sparc32 files with identical names to sparc64 renamed to <name>_32.S
o introduced a few Kconfig helpers to simplify Makefile logic
o refactored Makefile to prepare for unification
- use obj-$(CONFIG_SPARC32) for sparc32 specific files
- use <name>_$(BITS) for files where sparc64 has a _64 variant
- sparc64 directly include a few files where sparc32 builds them,
refer to these files directly (no BITS)
- sneaked in -Werror as used by sparc64
o modified sparc/Makefile to use the new names for head/init_task
