All the ia64 pvops code is now dead code since both
xen and kvm support have been ripped out [0] [1]. Just
that no one had troubled to rip this stuff out. The only
useful remaining pieces were the old pvops docs but that
was recently also generalized and moved out from ia64 [2].
This has been run time tested on an ia64 Madison system.

Move down __kernel_syscall_via_epc to the end of the page.
We want to paravirtualize only __kernel_syscall_via_epc because
it includes privileged instructions. Its paravirtualization increases
its symbols size.
On the other hand, each paravirtualized gate must have e symbols of
same value and size to native's because the page is mapped to GATE_ADDR
and GATE_ADDR + PERCPU_PAGE_SIZE and vmlinux is linked to those symbols.
Later to have the same symbol size, we pads NOPs at the end of
__kernel_syscall_via_epc. Move it after other functions to keep
symbols of other functions have same values and sizes.

SDM says that brl instruction must be followed by a stop bit.
Fix instance in BRL_COND_FSYS_BUBBLE_DOWN where it isn't.

Delete obsolete stuff from arch Makefile
Rename file to asm-offsets.h
The trick used in the arch Makefile to circumvent the circular
dependency is kept.

Yanmin Zhang pointed out a sequence problem when saving the psr. David
Mosberger provided this patch (which gave up a cycle).

Two other very minor changes: use "mov.i" instead of "mov" for reading
ar.pfs (for clarity; doesn't affect the code at all). Also, predicate
the load of r14 for consistency.

Avoid some stalls, which is good for about 2 cycles when invoking a
light-weight handler. When invoking a heavy-weight handler, this
helps by about 7 cycles, with most of the improvement coming from the
improved branch-prediction achieved by splitting the BBB bundle into
two MIB bundles.

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!
