This file is included, directly or indirectly, by most of the
kernel-space C++ code, and so importing the entirety of "std"
seriously pollutes the global namespace.
So instead, just import "std::nothrow", which is the only thing
we really want in the global namespace. Tested on both GCC2
and GCC7 and seems to work just fine.
While I'm here, also update the include guards and copyright
header to match the standard format used elsewhere.
It seems not all of the kernel includes this, but some use new/delete
anyway. Further, operator delete[] was not implemented at all.
Possibly fixes the ARM build.
* define compat_image_info, compat_extended_image_info
to be used for respective 32-bit types of syscalls in compatibility mode.
* handle 32-bit types in _user_register_image, _user_get_image_info,
_user_get_next_image_info, other syscalls are compatible as is.

* offsetof is not allowed on non-POD types so we need to use
offset_of_member (gcc2 accepts offsetof, and C++11 relaxed the
constraints on where it is allowed so it should work there too)
* we have offset_of_member as a workaround until we switch to C++11,
move it from khash (which is soon to be removed) to list.h which is the
other place where it is used (for this one single call in our whole
codebase)
Also fix a typo in vfs.cpp.
* Instead of forcing the hash-table to use a copy of the key,
introduce and use TypeOperation template to avoid taking a
reference of a reference type (which gcc2 doesn't allow).
* The UNMAP command is theoretically much faster, as it can get many block
ranges instead of just a single range.
* Furthermore, the ATA TRIM command resembles it much better.
* Therefore, fs_trim_data now gets an array of ranges, and we use SCSI UNMAP
to trim.
* Updated BFS code to collect array ranges to fully support the new
fs_trim_data possibilities.
* No need for the atomically changed variables to be declared as
volatile.
* Drop support for atomically getting and setting unaligned data.
* Introduce atomic_get_and_set[64]() which works the same as
atomic_set[64]() used to. atomic_set[64]() does not return the
previous value anymore.
There is a global heap of cores, where the key is the highest priority
of threads running on that core. Moreover, for each core there is
a heap of logical processors on this core where the key is the priority
of currently running thread.
The per-core heap is used for load balancing among logical processors
on that core. The global heap is used in initial decision where to put
the thread (note that the algorithm that makes this decision is not
complete yet).
In SMP systems simple scheduler will be used only when all logical
processors share all levels of cache and the number of CPUs is low.
In such systems we do not have to care about cache affinity and
the contention on the lock protecting shared run queue is low. Single
run queue makes load balancing very simple.
