Add a struct representing a 64bit MSR pair consisting of a low and high
register part and convert msr_info to use it. Also, rename msr-on-cpu.c
to msr.c.
Side note: Put the cpumask.h include in __KERNEL__ space thus fixing an
allmodconfig build failure in the headers_check target.

Impact: performance optimization
I did some rebenchmarking with modern compilers and dropping
-funroll-loops makes the function consistently go faster by a few
percent. So drop that flag.
Thanks to Richard Guenther for a hint.

x86 has been switched to the generic versions of find_first_bit
and find_first_zero_bit, but the original versions were retained.
This patch just removes the now unused x86-specific versions.

The versions with inline assembly are in fact slower on the machines I
tested them on (in userspace) (Athlon XP 2800+, p4-like Xeon 2.8GHz, AMD
Opteron 270). The i386-version needed a fix similar to 06024f21 to avoid
crashing the benchmark.
Benchmark using: gcc -fomit-frame-pointer -Os. For each bitmap size
1...512, for each possible bitmap with one bit set, for each possible
offset: find the position of the first bit starting at offset. If you
follow ;). Times include setup of the bitmap and checking of the
results.

x86-specific: 0m3.692s 0m2.820s 0m3.196s / 0m2.480s
generic: 0m2.622s 0m1.662s 0m2.100s / 0m1.572s
If the bitmap size is not a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG, and no set
(cleared) bit is found, find_next_bit (find_next_zero_bit) returns a
value outside of the range [0, size]. The generic version always returns
exactly size. The generic version also uses unsigned long everywhere,
while the x86 versions use a mishmash of int, unsigned (int), long and
unsigned long.
Using the generic version does give a slightly bigger kernel, though.

This kills unused __clear_bit_string and find_next_zero_string (they
were used by only gart and calgary IOMMUs).

Trivial unification of Makefiles for the
x86 specific library part.
Linking order is slightly modified but should be harmless.
Tested doing a defconfig build before and after and saw
no build changes.
It adds almost as many lines as it deletes - bacause
I broke a few lines up fo readability in the Makefile.
