version before looking at more complicated changes.

This fixes a potential problem in the migration thread for the case that
the first CPU in the cpus_allowed mask of a process is offline.

This fixes the 'iret' exception recovery code to use the new ES/DS segment
rules - load them with __USER_DS instead of __KERNEL_DS.

It also fixes a typo in a comment.

to properly de-activate it and make the child_tid logic work
correctly.

Clear %fs/%gs in deactivate_mm() on x86, since our LDT will no
longer be valid after this.

Update mm_release() to deactivate MM state before releasing,
and avoid the expensive child_tid FUTEX if we're the last user
of the MM.

This patch, which depends on the previous %ebx -> %ebp patch, removes
all pop instruction in the sysenter return path.

This leaks the thread_info address to user mode but this shouldn't be
a security problem.

This is what happens to the various registers:

	%eax: return value from system call: already in place
	%ebx, %esi, %edi: saved by the C compiler
	%ecx, %edx, %ebp: restored by user mode, fixed values by kernels
	%esp, eip: copied to %ecx/%edx and restored by sysexit
	%ds, %es: initialized to __USER_DS on kernel entry
	%cs, %ss: restored by sysexit based on msr
	%fs, %gs: not modified by the kernel (saved around context switch)
	eflags: not preserved, iopl saved around context switch
	FP, XMM: any code that modifies them must save/restore them

Note that while it is possible to change %ebx, %esi, %edi, %ecx, %edx
or %ebp via struct pt_regs, anything that does should set TIF_IRET or
another work flag (and it hopefully already does).

This patch changes assembly code that accesses thread_info to use %ebp
rather than %ebx.

This allows me to take advantage of the fact that %ebp is restored by
user mode in the sysenter register pop removal patch.
