In order to avoid unnecessary chains of branches, rather than
implementing copy_user_generic() as a function consisting of
just a single (possibly patched) branch, instead properly deal
with patching call instructions in the alternative instructions
framework, and move the patching into the callers.
As a follow-on, one could also introduce something like
__EXPORT_SYMBOL_ALT() to avoid patching call sites in modules.

The early ioremap fixmap entries cover half (or for 32-bit
non-PAE, a quarter) of a page table, yet they got
uncondtitionally aligned so far to a 256-entry boundary. This is
not necessary if the range of page table entries anyway falls
into a single page table.
This buys back, for (theoretically) 50% of all configurations
(25% of all non-PAE ones), at least some of the lowmem
necessarily lost with commit e621bd1895.

Optimize hweight32 by using the same technique in hweight64.
The proof of this technique can be found in the commit log for
f9b4192923 ("bitops: hweight()
speedup").
The userspace benchmark on x86_32 showed 20% speedup with
bitmap_weight() which uses hweight32 to count bits for each
unsigned long on 32bit architectures.
int main(void)
{
#define SZ (1024 * 1024 * 512)
static DECLARE_BITMAP(bitmap, SZ) = {
[0 ... 100] = 1,
};
return bitmap_weight(bitmap, SZ);
}

In March 2008 commit 0ac4a3c2fb ("ACPI: fix
ATA_ACPI build") made CONFIG_ACPI_DOCK be selected by CONFIG_ATA_ACPI because
of a build error when CONFIG_ATA_ACPI=y and CONFIG_ACPI_DOCK=m.
However, in September 2008 commit 898b054f3e
("dock: make dock driver not a module") removed the possibility of having
CONFIG_ACPI_DOCK=m and therefore there is no need for selecting it when
CONFIG_ATA_ACPI=y.
This makes the kernel ~5 Kb smaller for people who don't have a dock by
allowing them to not have ACPI_DOCK compiled-in because of ATA_ACPI=y.

going forward as the SNC devices describes more and more devices (or

(F124 or F135) with a 0 argument to get a full list of features.
