Change sn_change_coherence's ia64_sal_oemcall to the nolock variety since
PROM does the locking for this function internally.

<title>Rework ptep_set_access_flags and fix sun4c</title>

<content type='text'>
Some changes done a while ago to avoid pounding on ptep_set_access_flags and
update_mmu_cache in some race situations break sun4c which requires
update_mmu_cache() to always be called on minor faults.

This patch reworks ptep_set_access_flags() semantics, implementations and
callers so that it's now responsible for returning whether an update is
necessary or not (basically whether the PTE actually changed).  This allow
fixing the sparc implementation to always return 1 on sun4c.

ia64 _PDC setup is defined similar to i386. So, cleanup the header to use
generic _PDC defines than using specific defines in ia64.

There are seven legacy system calls that ia64 doesn't implement, but glibc
provides equivalent functionality by using more modern system calls. Stop
checksyscalls.sh from complaining about these seven.

In case of reentrance i.e when a probe handler calls a functions which
inturn has a probe, we save a previous kprobe information and just single
step the reentrant probe without calling the actual probe handler.  During
this reentracy period, if an interrupt occurs and if probe happens to
trigger in the inturrupt path, then we were corrupting the previous kprobe(
as we were overriding the previous kprobe info) info their by crashing the
system.  This patch fixes this issues by having a an array of previous
kprobe info struct(with the array size of 2).

This similar technique is not needed on i386 and x86_64 because by default
interrupts are turn off in the break/int3 exception handler.

On SN, only allow one bit to be set in the smp_affinty mask when
redirecting an interrupt.  Currently setting multiple bits is allowed, but
only the first bit is used in determining the CPU to redirect to.  This has
caused confusion among some customers.
