Move Linux kernel version conditionals to kernel-features.h


Generally conditions on the compile-time minimum Linux kernel version
go via __ASSUME_* macros defined in kernel-features.h.  However,
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sysconf.c and
ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ia64/nptl/dl-sysdep.h have such
conditions directly using __LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION.

This patch fixes those conditions to follow the kernel-features.h
convention instead.  For sysconf.c, a new macro
__ASSUME_ARG_MAX_STACK_BASED is defined and used.  Because the #if
condition was a condition on an if () condition using the same
version, the same version number was previously repeated in both
conditions in close proximity; to avoid those copies (that should be
in sync) now being widely separated, I defined a macro
__LINUX_ARG_MAX_STACK_BASED_MIN_KERNEL for the version number in
question.  For ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ia64/nptl/dl-sysdep.h, I
removed the condition; this is in line with commit
de7f5ce7c595f4741029f7e63429826f8e82b340 which removed such a
condition from nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/i686/dl-sysdep.h a
few months ago.

Tested x86_64.  (This should be reviewed for ia64.)

2012-08-03  Joseph Myers  <joseph@codesourcery.com>

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/kernel-features.h
	(__LINUX_ARG_MAX_STACK_BASED_MIN_KERNEL): Define.
	[__LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION >= __LINUX_ARG_MAX_STACK_BASED_MIN_KERNEL]
	(__ASSUME_ARG_MAX_STACK_BASED): Define.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sysconf.c (__sysconf)
	[__LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION < 0x020617]: Change condition to
	!__ASSUME_ARG_MAX_STACK_BASED.  Compare version with
	__LINUX_ARG_MAX_STACK_BASED_MIN_KERNEL.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ia64/nptl/dl-sysdep.h
	(_dl_discover_osversion): Do not condition on
	__LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION < 0x020617.
	(HAVE_DL_DISCOVER_OSVERSION): Likewise.
