Restore EPC at the branch whose delay slot is emulated if the delay-slot
instruction signals. This is so that code in `fpu_emulator_cop1Handler'
does not see EPC having advanced and mistakenly successfully resume
userland execution from the location at the branch target in that case.
Restoring EPC guarantees an immediate exit from the emulation loop and
if EPC hasn't advanced at all since entering the loop, also issuing the
signal reported by the delay-slot instruction.

Correct a cache coherency regression introduced with be1664c4 [Another
round of fixes for the fp emulator.] for the emulation frame used in
delay-slot emulation.
Two instructions are copied into the frame and as from the commit
referred a cache synchronisation call is made for the second instruction
aka `badinst' of the two only. The `flush_cache_sigtramp' interface is
reused that guarantees that synchronisation will be made for 8 bytes or
2 instructions starting from the address requested, although if cache
lines are wider then a larger area may be synchronised.
Change the call to point to the first of the two instructions aka `emul'
instead, removing unpredictable behaviour resulting from cache
incoherency.
This bug only ever manifested itself on systems implementing 4-byte
cache lines, typically MIPS I systems, causing all kinds of weirdness.
This is because the sequence of two instructions starting from `emul' is
8-byte aligned and for 8-byte or wider cache lines the line synchronised
will span both, so the vast majority of systems have escaped unharmed.

Delay slot emulation in the FPU emulator is the only kernel user of an
executable stack, it is also very slow. Add a counter so we can see
how many of these emulations are done.

On SMP systems, the collection of statistics can cause cache line
bouncing in the lines associated with the counters. Also there are
races incrementing the counters on multiple CPUs.
To fix both problems, we collect the statistics in per-CPU variables,
and add them up in the debugfs read operation.
As a test I ran the LTP float_bessel test on a 12 CPU Octeon system.
Without CONFIG_DEBUG_FS : 2602 seconds.
With CONFIG_DEBUG_FS: 2640 seconds.
With non-cpu-local atomic statistics: 14569 seconds.

Arguably using the address error handler has always been ugly. But with
processors that handle unaligned loads and stores in hardware the
current mechanism ceases to work so switch it to a BREAK instruction and
allocate break code 514 to the FPU emulator.
Yoichi Yuasa provided a build fix for CONFIG_BUG=n.

Remove includes of <linux/smp_lock.h> where it is not used/needed.
Suggested by Al Viro.
Builds cleanly on x86_64, i386, alpha, ia64, powerpc, sparc,
sparc64, and arm (all 59 defconfigs).

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!
