The absence of vmlinux.lds here keeps .vmlinux.lds.cmd from being
included, which in turn leads to it and all its dependents always
getting rebuilt independent of whether they are already up-to-date.

Enable gcov profiling of the entire kernel on x86_64. Required changes
include disabling profiling for:
* arch/kernel/acpi/realmode and arch/kernel/boot/compressed:
not linked to main kernel
* arch/vdso, arch/kernel/vsyscall_64 and arch/kernel/hpet:
profiling causes segfaults during boot (incompatible context)

Determine the compressed code offset (from the kernel runtime address)
at compile time. This allows some minor optimizations in
arch/x86/boot/compressed/head_*.S, but more importantly it makes this
value available to the build process, which will enable a future patch
to export the necessary linear memory footprint into the bzImage
header.

When generating the compression suffix in
arch/x86/boot/compressed/Makefile, follow standard Kbuild
conventions, that is:
- Use a dash not underscore before y/m/n endings
- Use := whenever possible.

Simplify the arch/x86/boot/compressed/Makefile, by using the new
capability of specifying multiple inputs to a compressor, and the
CONFIG_X86_NEED_RELOCS Kconfig symbol.

Look at the:
diff -u arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux_*.lds
output and realize that they're basially exactly the same except for
trivial naming differences, and the fact that the 64-bit version has a
"pgtable" thing.
So unify them.
There's some trivial cleanup there (make the output format a Kconfig thing
rather than doing #ifdef's for it, and unify both 32-bit and 64-bit BSS
end to "_ebss", where 32-bit used to use the traditional "_end"), but
other than that it's really very mindless and straigt conversion.
For example, I think we should aim to remove "startup_32" vs "startup_64",
and just call it "startup", and get rid of one more difference. I didn't
do that.
Also, notice the comment in the unified vmlinux.lds.S talks about
"head_64" and "startup_32" which is an odd and incorrect mix, but that was
actually what the old 64-bit only lds file had, so the confusion isn't
new, and now that mixing is arguably more accurate thanks to the
vmlinux.lds.S file being shared between the two cases ;)

Impact: code size reduction (possibly critical)
The x86 boot and decompression code has no use of the branch profiling
constructs, so disable them. This would bloat the setup code by as
much as 14K, eating up a fairly large chunk of the 32K area we are
guaranteed to have.

Impact: Replaces x86 kernel decompressor with new code
This is the third part of the bzip2/lzma patch
The bzip patch is based on an idea by Christian Ludwig, includes support for
compressing the kernel with bzip2 or lzma rather than gzip. Both
compressors give smaller sizes than gzip. Lzma's decompresses faster
than bzip2.
It also supports ramdisks and initramfs' compressed using these two
compressors.
The functionality has been successfully used for a couple of years by
the udpcast project
This version applies to "tip" kernel 2.6.28
This part contains:
- support for new bzip2 and lzma kernel compression for x86

The Kbuild variable "targets" is supposed to be
configuration-independent and reflect "all possible targets". This is
required to make "make clean" work properly.
Therefore, move all manipulation of "targets" as well as custom rules
out of the x86-32 ifdef statement. Only leave inside the ifdefs the
things that are genuinely configuration-dependent.
