This patch implements VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING for ia64,
which enable us to use more accurate cpu time accounting.
The VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is an item of kernel config, which s390
and powerpc arch have. By turning this config on, these archs
change the mechanism of cpu time accounting from tick-sampling
based one to state-transition based one.
The state-transition based accounting is done by checking time
(cycle counter in processor) at every state-transition point,
such as entrance/exit of kernel, interrupt, softirq etc.
The difference between point to point is the actual time consumed
during in the state. There is no doubt about that this value is
more accurate than that of tick-sampling based accounting.

Make the kernel jump into gdbstub (if configured) on a BUG with the register
set from the BUG rather than interpolating another illegal instruction and
leaving gdbstub's idea of the process counter in unsupported_syscall() where
the original BUG was detected.
With this patch, gdbstub reports a SIGABRT to the compiler and reports the
program counter at the original BUG, allowing the execution state at the time
of the BUG to be examined with GDB.

So far flush_cache_range() did't consider the I-cache largely because it
did rarely ever matter to real world code. This was working primarily
because normally code and data are don't share the same pages - with the
exception of MIPS16 code which uses address constants embedded between
the code. The following sequence of events may break the code:
o MIPS16 executable being loaded
o dynamic linker relocates the address constants embedded into the code:
o Uses mprotect(2) to make code pages PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE
o Performs the actual relocations by writing to the pages which likely
are COW. Because no PROT_EXEC is set I-cache coherence will not be
considered.
o Uses mprotect(2) to switch code pages back to PROT_READ|PROT_EXEC.
This results in a call to flush_cache_range() which also does not
consider I-caches.
o => executing the page just having been relocated may now result in the
I-cache getting refilled with stale data from memory.
