In some cases such as:
	iph-&gt;check = 0;
	iph-&gt;check = ip_fast_csum((unsigned char *)iph, iph-&gt;ihl);
GCC may optimize out the previous store.

Observed as a failure of NFS over udp (bad checksums on ip fragments)
when compiled with GCC 3.4.2.

We need to pass in the resource otherwise we cannot
release the region properly.  We must know whether it is
an I/O or MEM resource.

Recent workqueue changes basically make this a formal requirement.

Also, move atomic32.o from lib-y to obj-y since it exports symbols
to modules.

Virtually index, physically tagged cache architectures can get away
without cache flushing when forking.  This patch adds a new cache
flushing function flush_cache_dup_mm(struct mm_struct *) which for the
moment I've implemented to do the same thing on all architectures
except on MIPS where it's a no-op.

In order to sort out our struct termios and add proper speed control we need
to separate the kernel and user termios structures.  Glibc is fine but the
other libraries rely on the kernel exported struct termios and we need to
extend this without breaking the ABI/API

To do so we add a struct ktermios which is the kernel view of a termios
structure and overlaps the struct termios with extra fields on the end for
now.  (That limitation will go away in later patches).  Some platforms (eg
alpha) planned ahead and thus use the same struct for both, others did not.

This just adds the structures but does not use them, it seems a sensible
splitting point for bisect if there are compile failures (not that I expect
them)

The last thing we agreed on was to remove the macros entirely for 2.6.19,
on all architectures. Unfortunately, I think nobody actually _did_ that,
so they are still there.

When I added the entries for the robust futex syscall entries, I
forgot to bump NR_SYSCALLS.  The current situation is error-prone
because NR_SYSCALLS lives in entry.S where the system call limit
checks are enforced.  Move the definition to asm/unistd.h in order to
make this mistake much more difficult to make.

And wire up sys_migrate_pages since the powerpc folks implemented the
compat wrapper for us.
