Hardware with MCA bus is limited to 386 and 486 class machines
that are now 20+ years old and typically with less than 32MB
of memory. A quick search on the internet, and you see that
even the MCA hobbyist/enthusiast community has lost interest
in the early 2000 era and never really even moved ahead from
the 2.4 kernels to the 2.6 series.
This deletes anything remaining related to CONFIG_MCA from core
kernel code and from the x86 architecture. There is no point in
carrying this any further into the future.
One complication to watch for is inadvertently scooping up
stuff relating to machine check, since there is overlap in
the TLA name space (e.g. arch/x86/boot/mca.c).

These files were implicitly getting EXPORT_SYMBOL via device.h
which was including module.h, but that will be fixed up shortly.
By fixing these now, we can avoid seeing things like:
arch/x86/kernel/rtc.c:29: warning: type defaults to ‘int’ in declaration of ‘EXPORT_SYMBOL’
arch/x86/kernel/pci-dma.c:20: warning: type defaults to ‘int’ in declaration of ‘EXPORT_SYMBOL’
arch/x86/kernel/e820.c:69: warning: type defaults to ‘int’ in declaration of ‘EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL’

Variables that are shared between the vdso and the kernel are
currently a bit of a mess. They are each defined with their own
magic, they are accessed differently in the kernel, the vsyscall page,
and the vdso, and one of them (vsyscall_clock) doesn't even really
exist.
This changes them all to use a common mechanism. All of them are
delcared in vvar.h with a fixed address (validated by the linker
script). In the kernel (as before), they look like ordinary
read-write variables. In the vsyscall page and the vdso, they are
accessed through a new macro VVAR, which gives read-only access.
The vdso is now loaded verbatim into memory without any fixups. As a
side bonus, access from the vdso is faster because a level of
indirection is removed.
While we're at it, pack jiffies and vgetcpu_mode into the same
cacheline.

Now that the bulk of the old nmi_watchdog is gone, remove all
the stub variables and hooks associated with it.
This touches lots of files mainly because of how the io_apic
nmi_watchdog was implemented. Now that the io_apic nmi_watchdog
is forever gone, remove all its fingers.
Most of this code was not being exercised by virtue of
nmi_watchdog != NMI_IO_APIC, so there shouldn't be anything to
risky here.

Latest kernel has a kernel panic in booting on i386 machine when
profile=2 setting in cmdline. It is due to 'sp' being incorrect in
profile_pc().
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000246
IP: [<c01288b6>] profile_pc+0x2a/0x48
*pde = 00000000
Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP
This differs from the original version by Alex Shi in that we use the
kernel_stack_pointer() inline already defined in <asm/ptrace.h> for
this purpose, instead of #ifdef.

init_IRQ() and x86_late_time_init() are missing __init annotations.
The x86 platform ops variables are annotated, but the annotation needs
to be put between the variable name and the "=" of the initializer.

We do not need the TSC before late_time_init. Move the tsc_init to the
late time init code so we can also utilize HPET for calibration (which
we claimed to do but never did except in some older kernel
version). This also helps Moorestown to calibrate the TSC with the
AHBT timer which needs to be initialized in late_time_init like HPET.
