This has been obsolescent for a while; time for the final push.
In adjacent context, replaced old cpus_* with cpumask_*.

This patch adds a generic solution to support multiple machines based on
a given SoC within a single kernel image. It is implemented already for
several other architectures but MIPS has no generic support for that yet.
[Ralf: This competes with DT but DT is a much more complex solution and this
code has been used by OpenWRT for a long time so for now DT is a bad reason
to stop the merge but longer term this should be migrated to DT.]

They tend to get not updated when files are moved around or copied and
lack any obvious use. While at it zap some only too obvious comments and
as per Shinya's suggestion, add a copyright header to extable.c.

Outlining fixes the issue were on certain CPUs such as the R10000 family
the delay loop would need an extra cycle if it overlaps a cacheline
boundary.
The rewrite also fixes build errors with GCC 4.4 which was changed in
way incompatible with the kernel's inline assembly.
Relying on pure C for computation of the delay value removes the need for
explicit. The price we pay is a slight slowdown of the computation - to
be fixed on another day.

Probe for watch register characteristics, and report them in /proc/cpuinfo.

Shadow register support would not possibly have worked on multicore
systems. The support code for it was also depending not on MIPS R2 but
VSMP or SMTC kernels even though it makes perfect sense with UP kernels.
SR sets are a scarce resource and the expected usage pattern is that
users actually hardcode the register set numbers in their code. So fix
the allocator by ditching it. Move the remaining CPU probe bits into
the generic CPU probe.

So far /proc/cpuinfo has been the only user but human readable processor
name are more useful than that for proc.

Note that the BCM4710 does not support the wait instruction, this
is not a mistake in the code.
It originally comes from the OpenWrt patches.

Currently, /proc/cpuinfo contains several copies of the information for
whatever processor we happen to be scheduled on. This patch makes it contain
the proper information for each CPU, which is particularly useful on mixed
R12k/R10k IP27 machines.

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!
