- extend/clarify explanations where necessary
- move comments from macro values to before the macro, to
make them more consistent, and to reduce preprocessor overhead
- sort GDT index and selector values likewise by number
- use consistent, modern kernel coding style across the file
- capitalize consistently
- use consistent vertical spacing
- remove the unused get_limit() method (noticed by Andy Lutomirski)

This file just defines a number of constants, and a few macros
and inline functions. It is particularly badly written.
For example, it is not trivial to see how descriptors are
numbered (you'd expect that should be easy, right?).
This change deobfuscates it via the following changes:
Group all GDT_ENTRY_foo together (move intervening stuff away).
Number them explicitly: use a number, not PREV_DEFINE+1, +2, +3:
I want to immediately see that GDT_ENTRY_PNPBIOS_CS32 is 18.
Seeing (GDT_ENTRY_KERNEL_BASE+6) instead is not useful.
The above change allows to remove GDT_ENTRY_KERNEL_BASE
and GDT_ENTRY_PNPBIOS_BASE, which weren't used anywhere else.
After a group of GDT_ENTRY_foo, define all selector values.
Remove or improve some comments. In particular:
Comment deleted as stating the obvious:
/*
* The GDT has 32 entries
*/
#define GDT_ENTRIES 32
"The segment offset needs to contain a RPL. Grr. -AK"
changed to
"Selectors need to also have a correct RPL (+3 thingy)"
"GDT layout to get 64bit syscall right (sysret hardcodes gdt
offsets)" expanded into a description *how exactly* sysret
hardcodes them.
Patch was tested to compile and not change vmlinux.o
on 32-bit and 64-bit builds (verified with objdump).

This patch registers exception handlers for tracing to a trace IDT.
To implemented it in set_intr_gate(), this patch does followings.
- Register the exception handlers to
the trace IDT by prepending "trace_" to the handler's names.
- Also, newly introduce trace_page_fault() to add tracepoints
in a subsequent patch.

If we get an exception during early boot, walk the exception table to
see if we should intercept it. The main use case for this is to allow
rdmsr_safe()/wrmsr_safe() during CPU initialization.
Since the exception table is currently sorted at runtime, and fairly
late in startup, this code walks the exception table linearly. We
obviously don't need to worry about modules, however: none have been
loaded at this point.
[ v2: Use early_fixup_exception() instead of linear search ]

gas prior to (perhaps) 2.16.90 has problems with passing non-
parenthesized expressions containing spaces to macros. Spaces, however,
get inserted by cpp between any macro expanding to a number and a
subsequent + or -. For the +, current x86 gas then removes the space
again (future gas may not do so), but for the - the space gets retained
and is then considered a separator between macro arguments.
Fix the respective definitions for both the - and + cases, so that they
neither contain spaces nor make cpp insert any (the latter by adding
seemingly redundant parentheses).

Impact: stack protector for x86_32
Implement stack protector for x86_32. GDT entry 28 is used for it.
It's set to point to stack_canary-20 and have the length of 24 bytes.
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR turns off CONFIG_X86_32_LAZY_GS and sets %gs
to the stack canary segment on entry. As %gs is otherwise unused by
the kernel, the canary can be anywhere. It's defined as a percpu
variable.
x86_32 exception handlers take register frame on stack directly as
struct pt_regs. With -fstack-protector turned on, gcc copies the
whole structure after the stack canary and (of course) doesn't copy
back on return thus losing all changed. For now, -fno-stack-protector
is added to all files which contain those functions. We definitely
need something better.

a. the double underscore is ugly and pointless.
