Recently a few direct accesses to the thread_info in the task structure snuck
back, so this wraps them with the appropriate wrapper.

Now that finally all supported versions of binutils have functioning
support for .subsection use .subsection to tweak the branch prediction

I did not modify the R10000 errata variants because it seems unclear if
this will invalidate the workaround which actually relies on the cheesy
prediction of branch likely to cause a misspredict if the sc was
successful.

This eleminates the need to include ptrace.h into system.h and fixes a
harmless namespace conflict on the PC symbol in bpck.c.

Also the R4000 / R4600 LL/SC instructions imply a sync so no explicit sync
needed.

<title>[PATCH] remove set_wmb - arch removal</title>

set_wmb should not be used in the kernel because it just confuses the
code more and has no benefit.  Since it is not currently used in the
kernel this patch removes it so that new code does not include it.

All archs define set_wmb(var, value) to do { var = value; wmb(); }
while(0) except ia64 and sparc which use a mb() instead.  But this is
still moot since it is not used anyway.

Hasn't been tested on any archs but x86 and x86_64 (and only compiled
tested)
