This patch is the meat of the PDA change. This patch makes several related
changes:
1: Most significantly, %gs is now used in the kernel. This means that on
entry, the old value of %gs is saved away, and it is reloaded with
__KERNEL_PDA.
2: entry.S constructs the stack in the shape of struct pt_regs, and this
is passed around the kernel so that the process's saved register
state can be accessed.
Unfortunately struct pt_regs doesn't currently have space for %gs
(or %fs). This patch extends pt_regs to add space for gs (no space
is allocated for %fs, since it won't be used, and it would just
complicate the code in entry.S to work around the space).
3: Because %gs is now saved on the stack like %ds, %es and the integer
registers, there are a number of places where it no longer needs to
be handled specially; namely context switch, and saving/restoring the
register state in a signal context.
4: And since kernel threads run in kernel space and call normal kernel
code, they need to be created with their %gs == __KERNEL_PDA.

When a CPU is brought up, a PDA and GDT are allocated for it. The GDT's
__KERNEL_PDA entry is pointed to the allocated PDA memory, so that all
references using this segment descriptor will refer to the PDA.
This patch rearranges CPU initialization a bit, so that the GDT/PDA are set up
as early as possible in cpu_init(). Also for secondary CPUs, GDT+PDA are
preallocated and initialized so all the secondary CPU needs to do is set up
the ldt and load %gs. This will be important once smp_processor_id() and
current use the PDA.
In all cases, the PDA is set up in head.S, before a CPU starts running C code,
so the PDA is always available.

- Introduced GET_DESC_BASE() macro to be used from asm
- Rewrote the fixup code in asm, as calling a C code with the altered %ss

- No longer altering the stack from a .fixup section
- 16bit per-cpu stack is no longer used, instead the stack segment base
is patched the way so that the high word of the kernel and user %esp

Jesper Juhl reported that testing the software math-emulation by forcing
"no387" doesn't work on modern CPU's.
The reason was two-fold:
- you also need to pass in "nofxsr" to make sure that we not only don't
touch the old i387 legacy hardware, it also needs to disable the
modern XMM/FXSR sequences
- "nofxsr" didn't actually clear the capability bits immediately,
leaving the early boot sequence still using FXSR until we got to
the identify_cpu() stage.
This fixes the "nofxsr" flag to take effect immediately on the boot CPU.

ACPI C3 works for "Powersaver" processors, so use it only for them.
Older CPU will change frequency on "halt" only. But we can protect transition
in two ways:
- by ACPI PM2 register, there is "bus master arbiter disable" bit.
This isn't tested because VIA mainboards don't have PM2 register,
- by PLE133 PCI/AGP arbiter disable register.
There are two bits in this register. First is "PCI arbiter disable",
second "AGP arbiter disable". This is working on VIA Epia 800 mainboards.
Test on bm_control is more proper because this is true
when PM2 register exist.

There is no need to worry about local APIC.
There is need to worry about I/O APIC, because I/O APIC
is replacing good old 8259. According to Nehemiah datasheet VIA is
using 3-wire bus to connect local APIC to I/O APIC.
"[...] When IA32_APIC_BASE[11] is set to 0, processor APICs based on the 3-wire APIC
bus cannot be generally re-enabled until a system hardware reset. The 3-wire bus
looses track of arbitration that would be necessary for complete re-enabling. Certain
(local) APIC functionality can be enabled. [...]"
So we must set disable bit for each interrupt in I/O APIC registers.
Same situation as for PIC - we must poke registers direcly.
How to do this? I don't know. So at the moment it is better to fail.
