If the kernel OOPSed or BUGed then it probably should be considered as
tainted.  Thus, all subsequent OOPSes and SysRq dumps will report the
tainted kernel.  This saves a lot of time explaining oddities in the
calltraces.

Don't make this dependent on CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL - if we hit a WARN_ON
we need the stack trace to work out how we got to that point.

Add calls to oops_enter() and oops_exit() to __die(), so that
things like lockdep know when an oops occurs.

Add suffixes to the oops report to indicate whether the running
kernel has been built with preempt or smp support.

<title>move die notifier handling to common code</title>

This patch moves the die notifier handling to common code.  Previous
various architectures had exactly the same code for it.  Note that the new
code is compiled unconditionally, this should be understood as an appel to
the other architecture maintainer to implement support for it aswell (aka
sprinkling a notify_die or two in the proper place)

arm had a notifiy_die that did something totally different, I renamed it to
arm_notify_die as part of the patch and made it static to the file it's
declared and used at.  avr32 used to pass slightly less information through
this interface and I brought it into line with the other architectures.

Lots of places in arch/arm were needlessly including linux/ptrace.h,
resumably because we used to pass a struct pt_regs to interrupt
handlers.  Now that we don't, all these ptrace.h includes are
redundant.

do_undefinstr currently does not expect undefined instructions in kernel
code, since it always uses get_user() to read the instruction.

Dereference the 'pc' pointer directly in the SVC case.

Per Nicolas Pitre's note, kernel code is never in thumb mode.

bad_mode() currently prints the mode which caused the exception, and
then causes an oops dump to be printed which again displays this
information (since the CPSR in the struct pt_regs is correct.)  This
leads to processor_modes[] being shared between traps.c and process.c
with a local declaration of it.

We can clean this up by moving processor_modes[] to process.c and
removing the duplication, resulting in processor_modes[] becoming
static.
