For freqency dependent TSCs we only scale the cycles, we do not account
for the discrepancy in absolute value.
Our current formula is: time = cycles * mult
(where mult is a function of the cpu-speed on variable tsc machines)
Suppose our current cycle count is 10, and we have a multiplier of 5,
then our time value would end up being 50.
Now cpufreq comes along and changes the multiplier to say 3 or 7,
which would result in our time being resp. 30 or 70.
That means that we can observe random jumps in the time value due to
frequency changes in both fwd and bwd direction.
So what this patch does is change the formula to:
time = cycles * frequency + offset
And we calculate offset so that time_before == time_after, thereby
ridding us of these jumps in time.
[ Impact: fix/reduce sched_clock() jumps across frequency changing events ]

The unaligned address exception handler (and others) does not scan the
fixup tables before oopsing. This is bad because it means passing a
badly aligned pointer from user space might crash the kernel.
Fix this by scanning the fixup tables in _exception(). This should
resolve the issue for unaligned addresses as well as other less common
exceptions that might be happening during a userspace access. The page
fault handler already does fixup processing.

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()
