Semicolons are not necessary after switch/while/for/if braces
so remove them.

Adapt new API. Almost change is trivial, most important change are to
remove following like =operator.

 cpumask_t cpu_mask = *mm_cpumask(mm);
 cpus_allowed = current-&gt;cpus_allowed;

Because cpumask_var_t is =operator unsafe. These usage might prevent
kernel core improvement.

No functional change.

<title>sparc32, sun4m: Implemented SMP IPIs support for SUN4M machines</title>

<id>ecbc42b70acbc6327adefe9635db93fcf62bf59d</id>
<content type='text'>
Implement the three IPIs (resched, single and cpu-mask) generation
and interrupt handler catch. The sun4m has 15 soft-IRQs and three
of them is used with this patch, the three IPIs was previously
implemented with the cross-call IRQ15 which does not work with
locking routines such as spinlocks because IRQ15 is NMI, it may
cause deadlock.

The IRQ trap handler code assumes (in the same spritit as the old
it seems) that hard interrupts will be generated until handled
(level), when a IRQ happens the IRQ pending register is checked
for pending soft-IRQs. When both hard and soft IRQ happens at the
same time only soft-IRQs are handled.

The old code implemented a soft-IRQ traphandler at IRQ14 which
called smp_reschedule_irq which in turn called set_need_resched.
It seems to be an old relic and is replaced with the interrupt
traphander exit code RESTORE_ALL, it calls schedule() when
appropriate.

<title>sparc32: implement SMP IPIs using the generic functions</title>

<id>d6d048192b1d22cb8f09da0cc936095ec2cb969c</id>
<content type='text'>
The current sparc32 SMP IPI generation is implemented the
cross call function. The cross call function uses IRQ15 the
NMI, this is has the effect that IPIs will interrupt IRQ
critical areas and hang the system. Typically on/after
spin_lock_irqsave calls can be aborted.

The cross call functionality must still exist to flush
cache/TLBS.

This patch provides CPU models a custom way to implement
generation of IPIs on the generic code's request. The
typical approach is to generate an IRQ for each IPI case.

After this patch each sparc32 SMP CPU model needs to
implement IPIs in order to function properly.

<title>sparc32: always define boot_cpu_id</title>

Define boot_cpu_id in single-processor kernels as well. This is
to support architectures which can boot on other than CPU0.

Sam Ravnborg has written the cleanup parts by extracting
boot_cpu_id from smp_32.c into setup_32.c and cleaned up
sun4d_irq.c.

boot_cpu_id was initialized before BSS was cleared in
sun4c_continue_boot, instead boot_cpu_id is set to 0xff to
avoid BSS. If boot_cpu_id is untouched (0xff) by bootup code
it will be overwritten to 0. boot_cpu_id4 is automatically
calculated in common code.

The sparcstation 5 I have available has no MID property for the CPU.
This resulted in a panic when booting a SMP kernel on this box.

The assigned field in cpu_data is never used, so if we fail
to read the MID property then inform user and continue booting.

<title>sched: Provide scheduler_ipi() callback in response to smp_send_reschedule()</title>

<id>184748cc50b2dceb8287f9fb657eda48ff8fcfe7</id>
<content type='text'>
For future rework of try_to_wake_up() we'd like to push part of that
function onto the CPU the task is actually going to run on.

In order to do so we need a generic callback from the existing scheduler IPI.

This patch introduces such a generic callback: scheduler_ipi() and
implements it as a NOP.

BenH notes: PowerPC might use this IPI on offline CPUs under rare conditions!
