5ee171d264 Cleanup some leftover lint from the old interrupt system.
Also, while here, run up to 32 interrupt sources on APIC systems.
Normalize INTREN/INTRDIS so they are the same on both UP and SMP systems
rather than sometimes a macro, and sometimes a function.

0384fff8c5 Major update to the way synchronization is done in the kernel. Highlights
include:

* Mutual exclusion is used instead of spl*().  See mutex(9).  (Note: The
  alpha port is still in transition and currently uses both.)

* Per-CPU idle processes.

* Interrupts are run in their own separate kernel threads and can be
  preempted (i386 only).

eec2e836e9 Go back to the old (icu.s rev.1.7 1993) way of keeping the AST-pending
bit separate from ipending, since this is simpler and/or necessary for
SMP and may even be better for UP.

18c5a6c435 Implemented dynamic registration of software interrupt handlers. Not
used yet.

Use dummy SWI handlers to avoid some checks for null pointers.

010e669615 Removed the "globl" nature of the vec array. This was left over from the
time when icu.s was common between UP and SMP.  It is not necessary for UP
and thus can be removed from icu_ipl.s.

886e789627 The last of the encapsolation of cpl/spl/ipending things into a critical
region protected by the simplelock 'cpl_lock'.

Notes:

 - this code is currently controlled on a section by section basis with
   defines in machine/param.h.  All sections are currently enabled.

 - this code is not as clean as I would like, but that can wait till later.

 - the "giant lock" still surrounds most instances of this "cpl region".
   I still have to do the code that arbitrates setting cpl between the
   top and bottom halves of the kernel.

 - the possibility of deadlock exists, I am committing the code at this
   point so as to exercise it and detect any such cases B4 the "giant lock"
   is removed.

81c1993f87 Split vector.s into UP and SMP specific files:
- vector.s		<- stub called by i386/exception.s
 - icu_vector.s		<- UP
 - apic_vector.s	<- SMP

Split icu.s into UP and SMP specific files:
 - ipl.s		<- stub called by i386/exception.s (formerly icu.s)
 - icu_ipl.s		<- UP
 - apic_ipl.s		<- SMP

This was done in preparation for massive changes to the SMP INTerrupt
mechanisms.  More fine tuning, such as merging ipl.s into exception.s,
may be appropriate.
