Andi, Andrew:

Here's a little set of cleanup patches. They're general cleanups,
but also the final prerequisites for the Xen series.

They are:
- move pieces of i386 SMP into a common file, so they can be used by
other sub-arches and Xen
- Make vsyscall (and vdso) use the common linux/elfnote.h macros
- Add kstrndup
- Add argv_split
- Cleanup and generalize the call_usermodehelper APIs
- Add a common orderly poweroff function
- And some more usermodehelper cleanups, to change the "wait" arg from
a semi-cryptic int into a less cryptic enum.

Thanks,
J
