On systems running with virtual cpus there is optimization potential in
regard to spinlocks and rw-locks. If the virtual cpu that has taken a lock
is known to a cpu that wants to acquire the same lock it is beneficial to
yield the timeslice of the virtual cpu in favour of the cpu that has the
lock (directed yield).
With CONFIG_PREEMPT="n" this can be implemented by the architecture without
common code changes. Powerpc already does this.
With CONFIG_PREEMPT="y" the lock loops are coded with _raw_spin_trylock,
_raw_read_trylock and _raw_write_trylock in kernel/spinlock.c. If the lock
could not be taken cpu_relax is called. A directed yield is not possible
because cpu_relax doesn't know anything about the lock. To be able to
yield the lock in favour of the current lock holder variants of cpu_relax
for spinlocks and rw-locks are needed. The new _raw_spin_relax,
_raw_read_relax and _raw_write_relax primitives differ from cpu_relax
insofar that they have an argument: a pointer to the lock structure.

This implements initial support for the vsyscall page on SH.
At the moment we leave it configurable due to having nommu
to support from the same code base. We hook it up for the
signal trampoline return at present, with more to be added
later, once uClibc catches up.

Cleanup of page table allocators, using generic folded PMD and PUD

Currently when making changes to control registers, we
typically need some time for changes to take effect (8
nops, generally). However, for sh4a we simply need to
do an icbi..
This is a simple patch for implementing a general purpose
ctrl_barrier() which functions as a control register write
barrier. There's some additional documentation in the patch
itself, but it's pretty self explanatory.
There were also some places where we were not doing the
barrier, which didn't seem to have any adverse effects on
legacy parts, but certainly did on sh4a. It's safer to have
the barrier in place for legacy parts as well in these cases,
though this does make flush_tlb_all() more expensive (by an
order of 8 nops). We can ifdef around the flush_tlb_all()
case for now if it's clear that all legacy parts won't have
a problem with this.

We had a pretty interesting oops happening, where copy_user_page()
was down()'ing p3map_sem[] with a bogus offset (particularly, an
offset that hadn't been initialized with sema_init(), due to the
mismatch between cpu_data->dcache.n_aliases and what was assumed
based off of the old CACHE_ALIAS value).
Luckily, spinlock debugging caught this for us, and so we drop
the old hardcoded CACHE_ALIAS for sh4 completely and rely on the
run-time probed cpu_data->dcache.alias_mask. This in turn gets
the p3map_sem[] index right, and everything works again.
While we're at it, also convert to 4-level page tables..
