The RCU context tracking code requires that arch code call
user_exit() on any entry into kernel code if TIF_NOHZ is set. This
patch adds a check for TIF_NOHZ and a comment to the syscall entry
tracing code.
The main purpose of this patch is to make the code easier to follow:
one can read the body of user_exit and of every function it calls
without finding any explanation of why it's called for traced
syscalls but not for untraced syscalls. This makes it clear when
user_exit() is necessary.

is_compat_task() is the wrong check for audit arch; the check should
be is_ia32_task(): x32 syscalls should be AUDIT_ARCH_X86_64, not
AUDIT_ARCH_I386.
CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL is currently incompatible with x32, so this has
no visible effect.

The sunvnet driver does not have an rmb() in the ring consumer corresponding
to the wmb() in the producer. According to Documentation/memory-barriers.txt:
"When dealing with CPU-CPU interactions, certain types of memory barrier should
always be paired. A lack of appropriate pairing is almost certainly an error."
In cases where an rmb() is not a no-op and a consumer is removing data from
the ring while a producer is adding new entries, a load reorder would allow
CPU1 CPU2
---- ----
LOAD desc.size [e.g]
STORE desc.size
<wmb>
set desc.hdr.state = VIO_DESC_READY
LOAD desc.hdr.state
[because VIO_DESC_READY, use
old desc.size, already loaded
out of order]
[CPU2 has reordered apparently unrelated LOADs]
To ensure other desc fields are not loaded before checking VIO_DESC_READY, we
need an rmb() between the check and desc data accesses.
I've also moved the viodbg() call to after the rmb() so that it, too, has
current descriptor data even with reordering, which has the side effect that
it won't print anything for descriptors that are not VIO_DESC_READY as before.
That's a) probably a good thing, since the fields are not necessarily set and,
b) better than adding another rmb() just for viodbg().
This would not be possible if strict-ordering is enforced, but then the
memory barriers should be no-ops in that case.
