Abhishek Sagar 395a59d0f8 ftrace: store mcount address in rec->ip
Record the address of the mcount call-site. Currently all archs except sparc64
record the address of the instruction following the mcount call-site. Some
general cleanups are entailed. Storing mcount addresses in rec->ip enables
looking them up in the kprobe hash table later on to check if they're kprobe'd.

Ingo Molnar 37135677e6 ftrace: fix mcount export bug
David S. Miller noticed the following bug: the -pg instrumentation
function callback is named differently on each platform. On x86 it
is mcount, on sparc it is _mcount. So the export does not make sense
in kernel/trace/ftrace.c - move it to x86.

Matthew Wilcox 64ac24e738 Generic semaphore implementation
Semaphores are no longer performance-critical, so a generic C
implementation is better for maintainability, debuggability and
extensibility.  Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for fixing the lockdep
warning.  Thanks to Harvey Harrison for pointing out that the
unlikely() was unnecessary.

Theodore Ts'o 8232fd6252 x86: export the symbol empty_zero_page on the 32-bit x86 architecture
The latest KVM driver wants to use the empty_zero_page symbol, and it's
not exported in 32-bit x86 (although it is exported by x86_64, s390, and
uml architectures).
