Thread Migration Preemption

(v3 did not have the latest updates from Oleg review)

This patch adds the ability to protect critical sections from migration to
another CPU without disabling preemption.

This will be useful to minimize the amount of preemption disabling for the -rt
patch. It will help leveraging improvements brought by the local_t types in
asm/local.h (see Documentation/local_ops.txt). Note that the updates done to
variables protected by migrate_disable must be either atomic or protected from
concurrent updates done by other threads.

Typical use:

migrate_disable();
local_inc(&__get_cpu_var(&my_local_t_var));
migrate_enable();

Which will increment the variable atomically wrt the local CPU.

Changes:

Do a check_migrate() upon migrate_enable() to answer to the migration
thread waiting for us to exit the migration disabled critical section. Use a
NEED_MIGRATE thread flag for this.

Note: (or we could say FIXME)
Is we ever want to check migration pending in assembly code, we will have to
make sure we test the right thread flag bits on each architectures. Care should
also be taken to check that the thread flags used won't trigger false positives
in non selective asm thread flag checks.

FIXME (HOTPLUG) :

Yes. My idea to fix this issue is the following:

If a thread has non zero migrate_count, we should still move it to a
different CPU upon hotplug cpu removal, even if this thread resists
migration. Care should be taken to send _all_ such threads to the _same_
CPU so they don't race for the per-cpu ressources. Does it make sense ?

We would have to keep the CPU affinity of the threads running on the
wrong CPU until they end their migrate disabled section, so that we can
put them back on their original CPU if it goes back online, otherwise we
could end up with concurrent per-cpu variables accesses.

(I'll wait for reply before coding a solution for this CPU HOTPLUG
related problem)
