Newer Intel CPUs (Core1+) have support for architectural
events described in CPUID 0xA. See the IA32 SDM Vol3b.18 for details.
The advantage of this is that it can be done without knowing about
the specific CPU, because the CPU describes by itself what
performance events are supported. This is only a fallback
because only a limited set of 6 events are supported.
This allows to do profiling on Nehalem and on Atom systems
(later not tested)
This patch implements support for that in oprofile's Intel
Family 6 profiling module. It also has the advantage of supporting
an arbitary number of events now as reported by the CPU.
Also allow arbitary counter widths >32bit while we're at it.
Requires a patched oprofile userland to support the new
architecture.

This essentially reverts Linus' earlier 4b9f12a377
commit. Nehalem is not core_2, so it shouldn't be reported as such.
However with the earlier arch perfmon patch it will fall back to
arch perfmon mode now, so there is no need to fake it as core_2.
The only drawback is that Linus will need to patch the arch perfmon
support into his oprofile binary now, but I think he can do that.

Commit ed458df4d2 ("PnP: move
pnpacpi/pnpbios_init to after PCI init") moved the PnP RTC discovery
later, and now the ACPI RTC glue code doesn't find it any more, breaking
the RTC wakealarm sysfs interfaces, as reported by Rafael.
This really is fairly messy, and we have several annoying ordering
constraints here - the PnP code that sets up the RTC resources wants to
run after the PCI resources have to be registered, which in turn needs
to run after ACPI has at least enumerated the root PCI buses etc. Our
initcall ordering is not fine-grained enough to make this all painless.
So this moves the ACPI RTC glue ("acpi_rtc_init()") down to a regular
module call, which fixes the problem Rafael has. The reason this isn't
wonderful is that we really should do acpi_rtc_init before we do the
rtc_cmos init, and now those two are in the same module_init() section.
Which happens to work, but only because drivers/rtc is linked after
drivers/acpi. In other words, we still have a very subtle ordering
issue here. Grr.

The x86 implementation of early_ioremap has an off by one error. If we get
an object which ends on the first byte of a page we undermap by one page and
this causes a crash on boot with the ASUS P5QL whose DMI table happens to fit
this alignment.
The size computation is currently
last_addr = phys_addr + size - 1;
npages = (PAGE_ALIGN(last_addr) - phys_addr)
(Consider a request for 1 byte at alignment 0...)
