This patch removes a variable which was not used in two functions. Yet
another code cleanup, nothing really significant.
Please note that I could not test this on x86_64. I don't have the
hardware for it.

x86_64 ]

Fix core dumping of floating point state. ELF_CORE_COPY_FPREGS gets a
definitions, and as a result, dump_fpu no longer needs to exist. Also,
elf_fpregset_t needed a real definition.

Handle floating point state better in ptrace. The code now correctly
distinguishes between PTRACE_[GS]ETFPREGS and PTRACE_[GS]ETFPXREGS. The FPX
requests get handed off to arch-specific code because that's not generic.
get_fpregs, set_fpregs, set_fpregs, and set_fpxregs needed real
implementations.
Something here exposed a missing include in asm/page.h, which needed
linux/types.h in order to get gfp_t, so that's fixed here.

Handle floating point state in across signals correctly. UML/i386 needs to
know whether the host does PTRACE_[GS]ETFPXREGS, so an arch_init_registers
hook is added, which on x86_64 does nothing.
UML doesn't save and restore floating point registers on kernel entry and
exit, so they need to be copied between the host process and the sigcontext.
save_fpx_registers and restore_fpx_registers are added for this purpose.
save_fp_registers and restore_fp_registers already exist.
There was a bunch of floating point state conversion code in
arch/um/sys-i386/ptrace.c which isn't needed there, but is needed in signal.c,
so it is moved over.
The i386 code now distinguishes between fp and fpx state and handles them
correctly. The x86_64 code just needs to copy state as-is between the host
process and the stack. There are also some fixes there to pass the correct
address of the floating point state around.

This patch makes a number of simplifications enabled by the removal of
CHOOSE_MODE. There were lots of functions that looked like
int foo(args){
foo_skas(args);
}
The bodies of foo_skas are now folded into foo, and their declarations (and
sometimes entire header files) are deleted.
In addition, the union uml_pt_regs, which was a union between the tt and skas
register formats, is now a struct, with the tt-mode arm of the union being
removed.
It turns out that usr2_handler was unused, so it is gone.

The next stage after removing code which depends on CONFIG_MODE_TT is removing
the CHOOSE_MODE abstraction, which provided both compile-time and run-time
branching to either tt-mode or skas-mode code.
This patch removes choose-mode.h and all inclusions of it, and replaces all
CHOOSE_MODE invocations with the skas branch. This leaves a number of trivial
functions which will be dealt with in a later patch.
There are some changes in the uaccess and tls support which go somewhat beyond
this and eliminate some of the now-redundant functions.

This patchset throws out tt mode, which has been non-functional for a while.
This is done in phases, interspersed with code cleanups on the affected files.
The removal is done as follows:
remove all code, config options, and files which depend on
CONFIG_MODE_TT
get rid of the CHOOSE_MODE macro, which decided whether to
call tt-mode or skas-mode code, and replace invocations with their
skas portions
replace all now-trivial procedures with their skas equivalents
There are now a bunch of now-redundant pieces of data structures, including
mode-specific pieces of the thread structure, pt_regs, and mm_context. These
are all replaced with their skas-specific contents.
As part of the ongoing style compliance project, I made a style pass over all
files that were changed. There are three such patches, one for each phase,
covering the files affected by that phase but no later ones.
I noticed that we weren't freeing the LDT state associated with a process when
it exited, so that's fixed in one of the later patches.
The last patch is a tidying patch which I've had for a while, but which caused
inexplicable crashes under tt mode. Since that is no longer a problem, this
can now go in.
This patch:
Start getting rid of tt mode support.
This patch throws out CONFIG_MODE_TT and all config options, code, and files
which depend on it.
CONFIG_MODE_SKAS is gone and everything that depends on it is included
unconditionally.
The few changed lines are in re-written Kconfig help, lines which needed
something skas-related removed from them, and a few more which weren't
strictly deletions.

Newly forked threads have no arch_switch_to_skas() called before their first
run, because when schedule() switches to them they're resumed in the body of
thread_wait() inside fork_handler() rather than in switch_threads() in
switch_to_skas(). Compensate this missing call.

Implement sys_[gs]et_thread_area and the corresponding ptrace operations for
UML. This is the main chunk, additional parts follow. This implementation is
now well tested and has run reliably for some time, and we've understood all
the previously existing problems.
Their implementation saves the new GDT content and then forwards the call to
the host when appropriate, i.e. immediately when the target process is
running or on context switch otherwise (i.e. on fork and on ptrace() calls).
In SKAS mode, we must switch registers on each context switch (because SKAS
does not switches tls_array together with current->mm).
Also, added get_cpu() locking; this has been done for SKAS mode, since TT does
not need it (it does not use smp_processor_id()).

Call arch_switch also in switch_to_skas, even if it's, for now, a no-op for
that case (and mark this in the comment); this will change soon.
Also, arch_switch for TT mode is actually useless when the PT proxy (a
complicate debugging instrumentation for TT mode) is not enabled. In fact, it
only calls update_debugregs, which checks debugregs_seq against seq (to check
if the registers are up-to-date - seq here means a "version number" of the
registers).
If the ptrace proxy is not enabled, debugregs_seq always stays 0 and
update_debugregs will be a no-op. So, optimize this out (the compiler can't
do it).
Also, I've been disappointed by the fact that it would make a lot of sense if,
after calling a successful
update_debugregs(current->thread.arch.debugregs_seq),
current->thread.arch.debugregs_seq were updated with the new debugregs_seq.
But this is not done. Is this a bug or a feature? For all purposes, it seems
a bug (otherwise the whole mechanism does not make sense, which is also a
possibility to check), which causes some performance only problems (not
correctness), since we write_debugregs when not needed.
Also, as suggested by Jeff, remove a redundant enabling of SIGVTALRM,
comprised in the subsequent local_irq_enable(). I'm just a bit dubious if
ordering matters there...

For security reasons, UML in is_syscall() needs to have access to code in
vsyscall-page. The current implementation grants this access by explicitly
allowing access to vsyscall in access_ok_skas(). With this change,
copy_from_user() may be used to read the code. Ptrace access to vsyscall-page
for debugging already was implemented in get_user_pages() by mainline. In
i386, copy_from_user can't access vsyscall-page, but returns EFAULT.
To make UML behave as i386 does, I changed is_syscall to use
access_process_vm(current) to read the code from vsyscall-page. This doesn't
hurt security, but simplifies the code and prepares implementation of
stub-vmas.

s390 needs to change some parts of arch/um/kernel/ptrace.c. Thus, the code
regarding PEEKUSER and POKEUSER are shifted to arch/um/sys-<subarch>/ptrace.c.
Also s390 debug registers need to be updated, when singlestepping is switched
on / off. Thus, setting/resetting of singlestepping is centralized in the new
function set_singlestep(), which also inserts the macro
SUBARCH_SET_SINGLESTEP(mode), if defined.
Finally, s390 has the "ieee_instruction_pointer" in its
registers, which also is allowed to be read via
ptrace( PTRACE_PEEKUSER, getpid(), PT_IEEE_IP, 0);
To implement this feature, sys_ptrace inserts the macro
SUBARCH_PTRACE_SPECIAL, if defined.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
