This patch (as1241) renames a bunch of functions in the PM core.
Rather than go through a boring list of name changes, suffice it to
say that in the end we have a bunch of pairs of functions:
device_resume_noirq dpm_resume_noirq
device_resume dpm_resume
device_complete dpm_complete
device_suspend_noirq dpm_suspend_noirq
device_suspend dpm_suspend
device_prepare dpm_prepare
in which device_X does the X operation on a single device and dpm_X
invokes device_X for all devices in the dpm_list.
In addition, the old dpm_power_up and device_resume_noirq have been
combined into a single function (dpm_resume_noirq).
Lastly, dpm_suspend_start and dpm_resume_end are the renamed versions
of the former top-level device_suspend and device_resume routines.

Rename the functions performing "_noirq" dev_pm_ops
operations from device_power_down() and device_power_up()
to device_suspend_noirq() and device_resume_noirq().
The new function names are chosen to show that the functions
are responsible for calling the _noirq() versions to finalize
the suspend/resume operation. The current function names do
not perform power down/up anymore so the names may be misleading.
Global function renames:
- device_power_down() -> device_suspend_noirq()
- device_power_up() -> device_resume_noirq()
Static function renames:
- suspend_device_noirq() -> __device_suspend_noirq()
- resume_device_noirq() -> __device_resume_noirq()

The downside of the last patch which made restore_flags and irq_enable
check interrupts is that they are now too big to be patched directly
into the callsites, so the C versions are always used.
But the C versions go via PV_CALLEE_SAVE_REGS_THUNK which saves all
the registers. In fact, we don't need any registers in the fast path,
so we can do better than this if we actually code them in assembler.
The results are in the noise, but since it's about the same amount of
code, it's worth applying.

lguest never checked for pending interrupts when enabling interrupts, and
things still worked. However, it makes a significant difference to TCP
performance, so it's time we fixed it by introducing a pending_irq flag
and checking it on irq_restore and irq_enable.
These two routines are now too big to patch into the 8/10 bytes
patch space, so we drop that code.
Note: The high latency on interrupt delivery had a very curious
effect: once everything else was optimized, networking without GSO was
faster than networking with GSO, since more interrupts were sent and
hence a greater chance of one getting through to the Guest!
Note2: (Almost) Closing the same loophole for iret doesn't have any
measurable effect, so I'm leaving that patch for the moment.

This provides a reliable way for asm-generic/types.h and other
files to find out if it is running on a 32 or 64 bit platform.
We cannot use CONFIG_64BIT for this in headers that are included
from user space because CONFIG symbols are not available there.
We also cannot do it inside of asm/types.h because some headers
need the word size but cannot include types.h.
The solution is to introduce a new header <asm/bitsperlong.h>
that defines both __BITS_PER_LONG for user space and
BITS_PER_LONG for usage in the kernel. The asm-generic
version falls back to 32 bit unless the architecture overrides
it, which I did for all 64 bit platforms.
