- this patch fixes a deadlock which may occur if we get a
spurious interrupt while calibrating clocks during the boot
time. Since we never handle interrupts while in the kernel
(BKL locked) the interrupt code locks the lock. This is a
different situation, a corner case, boot time only. We do not
return to userspace but to the kernel, so the BKL is not
unlocked. So we need irq handler which leaves the BKL
unlocked. The clock handler does it already, this patch adds
a dummy spurious irq handler for the same reason. It is better
to handle the situation this way to keep the normal runtime
code simple.
Headers that will be shared between old includes and NetBSD-like includes
are moved into common/include tree. They are still copied in /usr/include
in 'make includes', so compilation and programs aren't be affected.
