Looks OK to me.  A couple of things:

- Patches 1-3 should be combined so we don't create bisection holes
  due to x86 and sparc build errors.

- Patch 4 adds stuff which is unusable on uniprocessor, especially
  the presence of /proc/sys/kernel/softlockup_all_cpu_backtrace.  We
  already have #ifdef CONFIG_SMP in kern_table, so do more of that?
