o Move all files from sparc64/kernel/ to sparc/kernel
- rename as appropriate
o Update sparc/Makefile to the changes
o Update sparc/kernel/Makefile to include the sparc64 files
NOTE: This commit changes link order on sparc64!
Link order had to change for either of sparc32 and sparc64.
And assuming sparc64 see more testing than sparc32 change link
order on sparc64 where issues will be caught faster.

Don't clutter up the tree with sstate_blah() scattered all over the
place.

Hypervisor interfaces need to be negotiated in order to use
some API calls reliably. So add a small set of interfaces
to request API versions and query current settings.
This allows us to fix some bugs in the hypervisor console:
1) If we can negotiate API group CORE of at least major 1
minor 1 we can use con_read and con_write which can improve
console performance quite a bit.
2) When we do a console write request, we should hold the
spinlock around the whole request, not a byte at a time.
What would happen is that it's easy for output from
different cpus to get mixed with each other.
3) Use consistent udelay() based polling, udelay(1) each
loop with a limit of 1000 polls to handle stuck hypervisor
console.
