uml: throw out CONFIG_MODE_TT

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.

uml: fix an IPV6 libc vs kernel symbol clash

On some systems, with IPV6 configured, there is a clash between the kernel's
in6addr_any and the one in libc.

This is handled in the usual (gross) way of defining the kernel symbol out of
the way on the gcc command line.

The variable CFLAGS is a wellknown variable and the usage by

On top of that several people over time has asked for a way to

This patch replace use of CFLAGS with KBUILD_CFLAGS all over the
tree and enabling one to use:
make CFLAGS=...
to specify additional gcc commandline options.

One usecase is when trying to find gcc bugs but other
use cases has been requested too.

Patch was tested on following architectures:
alpha, arm, i386, x86_64, mips, sparc, sparc64, ia64, m68k

Test was simple to do a defconfig build, apply the patch and check
that nothing got rebuild.

minimal build fixes for uml (fallout from x86 merge)

a) include/asm-um/arch can't just point to include/asm-$(SUBARCH) now
b) arch/{i386,x86_64}/crypto are merged now
c) subarch-obj needed changes
d) cpufeature_64.h should pull "cpufeature_32.h", not <asm/cpufeature_32.h>
since it can be included from asm-um/cpufeature.h
e) in case of uml-i386 we need CONFIG_X86_32 for make and gcc, but not
for Kconfig
f) sysctl.c shouldn't do vdso_enabled for uml-i386 (actually, that one
should be registered from corresponding arch/*/kernel/*, with ifdef
going away; that's a separate patch, though).

With that and with Stephen's patch ("[PATCH net-2.6] uml: hard_header fix")
we have uml allmodconfig building both on i386 and amd64.

[PATCH] uml: fix compilation options for USER_OBJS

From: Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com>, Paolo Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it>

Make sure that when compiling USER_OBJS the correct compilation options are
passed; since they are compiled with USER_CFLAGS which is derived from
CFLAGS, make sure it is a recursively evaluated variable, so that changes
to CFLAGS done afterwards the inclusion of arch/$(ARCH)/Makefile are
reflected in USER_CFLAGS.

For instance, without this patch userspace objects are never compiled with
debug info active.
