This patch reaaranges inode_lock taking in writeback_inodes().  It narrows
down use of inode_lock and removes unneccassary nesting of sb_lock and
inode_lock.  Instead of holding inode_lock for all the time I moved it
around sync_sb_inodes() as it is in all other places.

This patch fixes race in writeback_inodes() described below:

writeback_inodes()
{
     ....
     sb->s_count++;
     spin_unlock(&sb_lock);
     ....
     spin_lock(&sb_lock);
     if (__put_super(sb))        <<< X
         goto restart;
     }
}

deactivate_super()
{
     fs->kill_sb(s);
         kill_block_super(sb)
             generic_shutdown_super(sb)
                     spin_lock(&sb_lock);
                     list_del(&sb->s_list);    <<< Y
                     spin_unlock(&sb_lock);
     ....
     put_super(s);
             spin_lock(&sb_lock);
             __put_super(sb);            <<< Z
             spin_unlock(&sb_lock);
}

The problem with it is that writeback_inodes() supposes that if
__put_super() returns 0 then no super block was deleted from the list and
we can safely traverse sb list further.

But as it is obvious from the deactivate_super() it's not actually true.
because at point Y we delete super block from the list and drop the lock.
We do __put_super() very much later...  So we can find sb with poisoned
sb->s_list at point X and we won't be the last sb reference holders.  The
last reference will be dropped in point Z.

So in case of the following sequence of execution Y -> X -> Z we'll get an
oops after point X in writeback_inodes().

This patch introduces __put_super_and_need_restart() function which allows
safe traversing of sb list.  I'll send a couple of patches later which
remove O(n^2) algos and using this function.

There have been reports of problems running UP ppc64 kernels where the
kernel would die in the floating point save/restore code.

It turns out kernel threads that call exec (and so become user tasks) do
not have a valid thread.regs.  This means init (pid 1) does not, it also
means anything called out of exec_usermodehelper does not.  Once that task
has forked (eg init), then the thread.regs in the new task is correctly
set.

On UP do lazy save/restore of floating point regs.  The SLES9 init is doing
floating point (the debian version of init appears not to).  The lack of
thread.regs in init combined with the fact that it does floating point
leads to our lazy FP save/restore code blowing up.

There were other places where this problem exhibited itself in weird and
interesting ways.  If a task being exec'ed out of a kernel thread used more
than 1MB of stack, it would be terminated due to the checks in
arch/ppc64/mm/fault.c (looking for a valid thread.regs when extending the
stack).  We had a test case using the tux webserver that was failing due to
this.

Since we zero all registers in ELF_PLAT_INIT, I removed the extra memset
in start_thread32.

The Spurious interrupt assignment for OpenPIC was the constant,
OPENPIC_VEC_SPURIOUS plus the offset passed in.  Due to bugs in some
OpenPICs, the end value needed to be 255 on those systems.  However, the
constant was then chosen to be 239, because offset on most systems is 16.
The 85xx has an offset of 64, however, and so this assignment caused
lock-ups during boot.  The proposed solution is to declare
OPENPIC_VEC_SPURIOUS to be 255, and use that value directly, instead of
adding the offset to it.

This patch places 'video/i810/' after 'char/' in drivers/Makefile.  This order
change makes it unnecessary for i810fb to explicitly call agp_intel_init().
This is untested, as I don't have any i810 hardware anymore, but I believe it
will work.  If it does, the ugly 'early initialization hack' in
drivers/char/agp/intel-agp.c:agp_intel_init() can be removed (haven't done it
yet).

Fix fbcon's setup routine so usage is consistent with previous kernels. 
Ie: video=ofonly and video=xxxfb:off should work.

This is done by fb_get_options() returning a nonzero value if:

- 'off' option is present
- 'ofonly' is present but driver name is not 'offb'

All drivers will not proceed with their initialization if return value is
nonzero.

"The latest changes introduced to the fb structs in linux/fb.h make
compilation of userspace programs break with:

include/linux/fb.h:305: error: field `modelist' has incomplete type

This is caused by struct list_head not being seen from userspace."

This patch removes struct list_head modelist from struct fb_monspecs and
moves it to struct fb_info instead, and for now, enclosed struct
fb_monspecs by #ifdef __KERNEL__/#endif.
