I introduced a new macro DEFINE_PER_CPU_PAGE_ALIGNED() to avoid wasting this space. All page aligned variables (only one at this time) are put in a separate subsection .data.percpu.page_aligned, at the very begining of percpu zone. Before patch , on a x86_32 machine : .data.percpu 30232 3227471872 .data.percpu 22168 3227471872 Thats 8064 bytes saved for each CPU.

For most of the systems, x2apic id reported by cpuid leaf 0xb will be same as the physical apic id reported by the APIC_ID register of the APIC. We follow the suggested guidelines and use the apic id reported by the cpuid. No change to non-generic UV platforms, will use the apic id reported in the APIC_ID register as the cpuid reported apic id's may not be unique.

| | * | | | | | | | x86, xsave: dynamically allocate sigframes fpstate instead of static allocationSuresh Siddha2008-07-307-16/+50

This will allow the fpstate structure to grow in the future, which includes extended state information supporting xsave/xrstor. signal handlers will be able to access the fpstate pointer from the sigcontext structure asusual, with no change. For the non RT sigframe's (which are supported only for 32bit apps), current static fpstate layout in the sigframe will be unused(so that we don't change the extramask[] offset in the sigframe and thus prevent breaking app's which modify extramask[]).

Introduces TS_XSAVE flag, which determine the need to use xsave/xrstor instructions during context switch instead of the legacy fxsave/fxrstor instructions. Thread-synchronous status word is already in L1 cache during this code patch and thus minimizes the performance penality compared to (cpu_has_xsave) checks.
