[SERIAL] removing legacy UART cruft

I'm trying to remove all the legacy UART cruft from ia64.  In theory
we should be able to discover all UARTs on ia64 via ACPI and PCI
enumeration, so we shouldn't need SERIAL_PORT_DFNS.

But SERIAL_PORT_DFNS currently does two things:
        1) it tells you about legacy devices you can't discover
           via a standard enumeration method, and
        2) it sizes old_serial_port[], which determines UART_NR,
           which is the maximum number of ports the driver will
           support

So here's a proposal to make SERIAL_PORT_DFNS optional and
provide another mechanism for configuring the number of ports
to support.

[PATCH] Fix -Wdeclaration-after-statement warnings for x86-64

Fix warnings on compilers that support -Wdeclaration-after-statement
in the x86-64 specific code. x86-64 was happily using ISO-C99 code
before because it only uses gcc 3+ which is ISO-C99 compliant, but
unfortunately this warning was added in the top level Makefile.

From Bryan O'Sullivan.

[PATCH] move job control fields from task_struct to

From: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com>

This patch completes what was started with the `process_group' accessor
function, moving all the job control-related fields from task_struct into
signal_struct and using process_foo accessor functions to read them.  All
these things are per-process in POSIX, none per-thread.  Off hand it's hard
to come up with the hairy MT scenarios in which the existing code would do
insane things, but trust me, they're there.  At any rate, all the uses
being done via inline accessor functions now has got to be all good.

I did a "make allyesconfig" build and caught the few random drivers and
whatnot that referred to these fields.  I was surprised to find how few
references to ->tty there really were to fix up.  I'm sure there will be a
few more fixups needed in non-x86 code.  The only actual testing of a
running kernel with these patches I've done is on my normal minimal x86
config.  Everything works fine as it did before as far as I can tell.

One issue that may be of concern is the lack of any locking on multiple
threads diddling these fields.  I don't think it really matters, though
there might be some obscure races that could produce inconsistent job
control results.  Nothing shattering, I'm sure; probably only something
like a multi-threaded program calling setsid while its other threads do tty
i/o, which never happens in reality.  This is the same situation we get by
using ->group_leader->foo without other synchronization, which seemed to be
the trend and noone was worried about it.
