Reintroduce uml_kmalloc for the benefit of UML libc code.  The
previous tactic of declaring __kmalloc so it could be called directly
from the libc side of the house turned out to be getting too intimate
with slab, and it doesn't work with slob.

So, the uml_kmalloc wrapper is back.  It calls kmalloc or whatever
that translates into, and libc code calls it.

kfree is left alone since that still works, leaving a somewhat
inconsistent API.

It turns out that if there's a panic early enough, UML will just sit there in
the LED-blinking loop because the panic notifier hadn't been installed yet.

This patch installs it earlier.

It also fixes the problem which exposed the hang, namely that if you give UML
a zero-sized initrd, it will ask alloc_bootmem for zero bytes, and that will
cause the panic.

While I was in initrd.c, I gave it a style makeover.

Prompted by checkpatch, I moved a couple extern declarations of uml_exitcode
to kern_util.h.

Now that ITIMER_REAL is no longer used, there is no need for any use of
SIGALRM whatsoever.  This patch removes all mention of it.

In addition, real_alarm_handler took a signal argument which is now always
SIGVTALRM.  So, that is gone.

Formatting changes in the files which have been changed in the course
of folding foo_skas functions into their callers.  These include:
	copyright updates
	header file trimming
	style fixes
	adding severity to printks

These changes should be entirely non-functional.

This patch makes a number of simplifications enabled by the removal of
CHOOSE_MODE.  There were lots of functions that looked like

	int foo(args){
		foo_skas(args);
	}

The bodies of foo_skas are now folded into foo, and their declarations (and
sometimes entire header files) are deleted.

In addition, the union uml_pt_regs, which was a union between the tt and skas
register formats, is now a struct, with the tt-mode arm of the union being
removed.

It turns out that usr2_handler was unused, so it is gone.

The next stage after removing code which depends on CONFIG_MODE_TT is removing
the CHOOSE_MODE abstraction, which provided both compile-time and run-time
branching to either tt-mode or skas-mode code.

This patch removes choose-mode.h and all inclusions of it, and replaces all
CHOOSE_MODE invocations with the skas branch.  This leaves a number of trivial
functions which will be dealt with in a later patch.

There are some changes in the uaccess and tls support which go somewhat beyond
this and eliminate some of the now-redundant functions.

This patchset throws out tt mode, which has been non-functional for a while.

This is done in phases, interspersed with code cleanups on the affected files.

The removal is done as follows:
	remove all code, config options, and files which depend on
CONFIG_MODE_TT
	get rid of the CHOOSE_MODE macro, which decided whether to
call tt-mode or skas-mode code, and replace invocations with their
skas portions
	replace all now-trivial procedures with their skas equivalents

There are now a bunch of now-redundant pieces of data structures, including
mode-specific pieces of the thread structure, pt_regs, and mm_context.  These
are all replaced with their skas-specific contents.

As part of the ongoing style compliance project, I made a style pass over all
files that were changed.  There are three such patches, one for each phase,
covering the files affected by that phase but no later ones.

I noticed that we weren't freeing the LDT state associated with a process when
it exited, so that's fixed in one of the later patches.

The last patch is a tidying patch which I've had for a while, but which caused
inexplicable crashes under tt mode.  Since that is no longer a problem, this
can now go in.

This patch:

Start getting rid of tt mode support.

This patch throws out CONFIG_MODE_TT and all config options, code, and files
which depend on it.

CONFIG_MODE_SKAS is gone and everything that depends on it is included
unconditionally.

The few changed lines are in re-written Kconfig help, lines which needed
something skas-related removed from them, and a few more which weren't
strictly deletions.
