The typename member of struct irq_chip was kept for migration purposes

<title>Alpha: Rearrange thread info flags fixing two regressions</title>

<content type='text'>
The removal of the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag, commit a583f1b54249b
"remove unused TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag," resulted in incorrect
setting of the unaligned access control flags by the prctl syscall.

The re-addition of the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag, commit d0420c83f39f
"KEYS: Extend TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME to (almost) all architectures [try #6]"
further caused problems, namely incorrect operands to assembler code
as evidenced by:

AS      arch/alpha/kernel/entry.o
arch/alpha/kernel/entry.S: Assembler messages:
arch/alpha/kernel/entry.S:326: Warning: operand out of range
(0x0000000000000406 is not between 0x0000000000000000 and
0x00000000000000ff)

Both regressions fixed by (1) rearranging TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag to be
in lower 8 bits of the thread info flags, and (2) making sure that
ALPHA_UAC_SHIFT matches the rearrangement of the thread info flags.

functions.

These values were only introduced during this release cycle, so it is
still early enough to get them right.

alpha uses the same values that are in asm-generic/fcntl.h, so just
remove them.

parisc uses the values interchanged for no apparent reason, so remove
them to give us consistency across all architectures.

    alpha: Clean up linker script using new linker script macros.

    Note that .data.page_aligned and .data.cacheline_aligned are now after
    _data; it was probably a bug that they were before it.

    Also, some explicit ALIGN(8)'s between various initcall sections were
    removed; this should be harmless as the implicit alignment of
    initcall_t was already 8.
