Cyrill Gorcunov bb7f5f6c26 x86: shrink __ALIGN and __ALIGN_STR definitions
Impact: cleanup

1) .p2align 4 and .align 16 are the same meaning
   (until a.out format for i386 is used which is
    not our case for CONFIG_X86_ALIGNMENT_16 anyway)

2) having 15 as max allowed bytes to be skipped
   does not make sense on modulo 16

Cyrill Gorcunov 7ab152470e x86: linkage.h - guard assembler specifics by __ASSEMBLY__

|Probably introduced by commit 95695547a7
|("x86: asm linkage - introduce GLOBAL macro") from the x86 tree.

Any assembler specific snippets being placed in headers
are to be protected by __ASSEMBLY__. Fixed.

Also move __ALIGN definition under the same protection as well.

Cyrill Gorcunov 1b25f3b4e1 x86: linkage - get rid of _X86 macros
Impact: cleanup

There was an attempt to bring build-time checking for
missed ENTRY_X86/END_X86 and KPROBE... pairs. Using
them will add messy in code. Get just rid of them.
This commit could be easily restored if the need appear
in future.

Cyrill Gorcunov 95695547a7 x86: asm linkage - introduce GLOBAL macro
If the code is time critical and this entry is called
from other places we use ENTRY to have it globally defined
and especially aligned.

Contrary we have some snippets which are size
critical. So we use plane ".globl name; name:"
directive. Introduce GLOBAL macro for this.

Cyrill Gorcunov 3b6c52b5b6 x86: introduce ENTRY(KPROBE_ENTRY)_X86 assembly helpers to catch unbalanced declaration v3
Impact: make ENTRY()/END() macros more capable

It's usefull to catch unbalanced or messed or mixed declarations of ENTRY and
KPROBES. These macros would help a bit.

For example the following code would compile without problems

        ENTRY_X86(mcount)
                retq
        END_X86(mcount)

But if you forget and mess the following form

        ENTRY_X86(mcount)
                retq
        END(mcount)

        ENTRY_X86(ftrace_caller)

The assembler will issue the following message:
Error: ENTRY_X86/KPROBE_X86 unbalanced,missed,mixed

Actually the checking is performed at every _X86 macro
so maybe it's good idea to put ENTRY_KPROBE_FINAL_X86
at the end of .S file to be sure you didn't miss anything.

H. Peter Anvin 1965aae3c9 x86: Fix ASM_X86__ header guards
Change header guards named "ASM_X86__*" to "_ASM_X86_*" since:

a. the double underscore is ugly and pointless.
b. no leading underscore violates namespace constraints.
