GRU Message queue instructions are used to deliver messages to other SSIs
within the numalink domain. In most cases, a single GRU mesq instruction
will deliver both the message AND an interrupt to notify the other SSI
that a messsage is present. In some cases, however, the interrupt must be
sent explicitly.
To improve resilency, the GRU driver should send these explicit interrupts
using the GRU to write the remote chipset register. Current code sends
the interrupt using a cpu instruction to write the chipset register.

Fix several bugs related to prefetch, ordering & speculation:
- GRU cch_allocate() instruction causes cacheable memory
to be created. Add a barriers to prevent speculation
from prefetching data before it exists.
- Add memory barriers before cache-flush instructions to ensure
that previously stored data is included in the line flushed to memory.

* Remove smp_lock.h from files which don't need it (including some headers!)
* Add smp_lock.h to files which do need it
* Make smp_lock.h include conditional in hardirq.h
It's needed only for one kernel_locked() usage which is under CONFIG_PREEMPT
This will make hardirq.h inclusion cheaper for every PREEMPT=n config
(which includes allmodconfig/allyesconfig, BTW)

Fix two problems related to GRU instruction failures. Cache coherency is
