acpi=ht was important in 2003 -- before ACPI was
universally deployed and enabled by default in
the major Linux distributions.
At that time, there were a fair number of people who
or chose to, or needed to, run with acpi=off,
yet also wanted access to Hyper-threading.
Today we find that many invocations of "acpi=ht"
are accidental, and thus is it possible that it
is doing more harm than good.
In 2.6.34, we warn on invocation of acpi=ht.
In 2.6.35, we delete the boot option.

* 'release' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/aegl/linux-2.6:
[IA64] wrong attribute of HUB chip written in uv_setup()
[IA64] remove trailing space in messages
[IA64] use asm-generic/scatterlist.h
[IA64] build arch/ia64/kernel/acpi-ext.o when CONFIG_ACPI
[IA64] Only build arch/ia64/kernel/acpi.o when CONFIG_ACPI
[IA64] Remove COMPAT_IA32 support

The following commit broke the ia64 sim_defconfig build:
3b2b84c0b81108a9a869a88bf2beeb5a95d81dd1
ACPI: processor: driver doesn't need to evaluate _PDC
This is because it added:
+#include <acpi/processor.h>
To arch/ia64/kernel/acpi.c. Unfortunately, the ia64_simdefconfig does
not turn on CONFIG_ACPI, and we get build errors.
The fix described in $subject seems to be the most sensible way to
untangle the mess.
The other issue is that acpi_get_sysname() is required for all configs,
most of which define CONFIG_ACPI, but are not CONFIG_IA64_GENERIC. Turn
it into an inline to cover the "non generic" ia64 configs; to prevent
a duplicate definition build error, we need to wrap the definition in
acpi.o inside an #ifdef.
Finally, move the pm_idle and pm_power_off exports into process.c (which
is always built), similar to other architectures, and allow the sim
defconfig to link.

The main benefit of using ACPI host bridge window information is that
we can do better resource allocation in systems with multiple host bridges,
e.g., http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14183
Sometimes we need _CRS information even if we only have one host bridge,
e.g., https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/341681
Most of these systems are relatively new, so this patch turns on
"pci=use_crs" only on machines with a BIOS date of 2008 or newer.

We broke "acpi=ht" in 2.6.32 by disabling MADT parsing
for acpi=disabled. e5b8fc6ac158f65598f58dba2c0d52ba3b412f52
This also broke systems which invoked acpi=ht via DMI blacklist.
acpi=ht is a really ugly hack,
but restore it for those that still use it.

The only thing arch-specific about calling _PDC is what bits get
set in the input obj_list buffer.
There's no need for several levels of indirection to twiddle those
bits. Additionally, since we're just messing around with a buffer,
we can simplify the interface; no need to pass around the entire
struct acpi_processor * just to get at the buffer.

arch dependent helper function that tells us if we should attempt to
evaluate _PDC on this machine or not.
The x86 implementation assumes that the CPUs in the machine must be
homogeneous, and that you cannot mix CPUs of different vendors.

ia64's sim_defconfig uses CONFIG_ACPI=n
which now #define's acpi_disabled in <linux/acpi.h>
So we shouldn't re-define it here in <asm/acpi.h>

After moving the the include files there were a few clean-ups:
1) Some files used #include <asm-ia64/xyz.h>, changed to <asm/xyz.h>
2) Some comments alerted maintainers to look at various header files to
make matching updates if certain code were to be changed. Updated these
comments to use the new include paths.
3) Some header files mentioned their own names in initial comments. Just
deleted these self references.
