d79a5f80dc x86: Force enable HPET for CK804 (nForce 4) chipsets
This patch adds a quirk from LinuxBIOS to force enable HPET on
the nVidia CK804 (nForce 4) chipset.

This quirk can very likely support more than just nForce 4
(LinuxBIOS use the same code for nForce 5), and possibly nForce 3,
but I don't have those chipsets, so cannot add and test them.

Tested on an Abit KN9 (CK804).

814a0e5cdf Revert lguest magic and use hook in head.S
Version 2.07 of the boot protocol uses 0x23C for the hardware_subarch
field, that for lguest is "1".  This allows us to use the standard
boot entry point rather than the "GenuineLguest" string hack.

The standard entry point also clears the BSS and copies the boot parameters
and commandline for us, saving more code.

56ae43dfe2 Example launcher handle guests not being ready for input
We currently discard console and network input when the guest has no
input buffers.  This patch changes that, so that we simply stop
listening to that fd until the guest refills its input buffers.

This is particularly important because hvc_console without interrupts
does backoff polling and so often lose characters if we discard.

47436aa4ad Boot with virtual == physical to get closer to native Linux.
1) This allows us to get alot closer to booting bzImages.

2) It means we don't have to know page_offset.

3) The Guest needs to modify the boot pagetables to create the
   PAGE_OFFSET mapping before jumping to C code.

4) guest_pa() walks the page tables rather than using page_offset.

5) We don't use page_offset to figure out whether to emulate: it was
   always kinda quesationable, and won't work for instructions done
   before remapping (bzImage unpacking in particular).

6) We still want the kernel address for tlb flushing: have the initial
   hypercall give us that, too.

511801dc31 Change example launcher to use unsigned long not u32
Apply Clue 2x4 to lguest userland<->kernel handling code and the
lguest launcher. Pointers are not to be passed in u32's!

Basic rule of thumb: Anything passing u32's back and forth should be
passing unsigned longs to be portable to 64 bit archs.

For those who forgotten already, I repeat: NO POINTERS IN u32!

3c6b5bfa3c Introduce guest mem offset, static link example launcher
In order to avoid problematic special linking of the Launcher, we give
the Host an offset: this means we can use any memory region in the
Launcher as Guest memory rather than insisting on mmap() at 0.

The result is quite pleasing: a number of casts are replaced with
simple additions.

ee8e7cfe9d Make asm-x86/bootparam.h includable from userspace.
To actually write a bootloader (or, say, the lguest launcher)
currently requires duplication of these structures.  Making them
includable from userspace is much nicer.

We merge the common userspace-required definitions of e820_32/64.h
into e820.h for export.

2de206d8f0 Fix compiler warning in smount example program from sharedsubtree.txt
If one compiles the example smount program, found in
Documentation/sharedsubtree.txt, with -Wall then there's a small
compiler warning rearing its ugly head :

 smount.c: In function 'main':
 smount.c:45: warning: implicit declaration of function 'strcmp'

Easily fixed by just including string.h

01dd2fbf0d typo fixes
Most of these fixes were already submitted for old kernel versions, and were
approved, but for some reason they never made it into the releases.

Because this is a consolidation of a couple old missed patches, it touches both
Kconfigs and documentation texts.
