I still think this one needs further refinement. Most of that stuff can
be factored out.

This one turns out to be moot, just make it unconditionally conditional ;-)
(it's already moved upstream to a location that we'll override anyway).

When I had looked at this one a while back, I preferred to do it with
some generic helpers to keep from splitting it. That was only for one
reason...it's quite security sensitive area (albeit rarely changing)
and had wanted to keep it in a single file as much as possible.

This one is nice.

Couple things here. Typo (inlinee). Header should be ASM_MACH...
And you can't add dma_map_$foo here like that. They're already in
header files, and in fact I already did this one in the header cleanup.
The normal bits are now in mach-default/mach_dma_mapping.h as static inlines
as they already were. And the xen bits are non-inlined (declared only)
in mach-xen/mach_dma_mapping.h. And I don't think xen_contig_memory
should be in global namespace. Finally, sidenote (a latent bug, not your
fault), dma_map_single calls kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL) but can be called from
contexts where it can't sleep.

+#ifdef CONFIG_XEN
+ if ((regs->xcs & 2) != 2)
+#else
if ((regs->xcs & 3) != 3)
+#endif
That change is all over the place. That should be a macro value that's
defined by the arch. The only reason I didn't do that in the other
patch I submitted is I couldn't think of a good name. KERNEL_CS_PL?
Something...at any rate, change should only be in header. Also, I
missed why the breakout of sigframe.h? They are identical? It's an
unncessary change.

Here's to your bravery ;-)
