Presently most of the 29-bit physical parts do P1/P2 segmentation
with a 1:1 cached/uncached mapping, jumping between the two to
control the caching behaviour. This provides the basic infrastructure
to maintain this behaviour on 32-bit physical parts that don't map
P1/P2 at all, using a shiny new linker section and corresponding
fixmap entry.

There are a lot of bogus cpu_data-> references that only end up working
for the boot CPU, convert these to current_cpu_data to fixup SMP.

Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.
