commit 337e4cc84021212a87b04b77b65cccc49304909e upstream
Add .altinstr_aux for additional instructions which will be used
before and/or during patching. All stuff which needs more
sophisticated patching should go there. See next patch.

commit 153a4334c439cfb62e1d31cee0c790ba4157813d upstream
asm/atomic.h doesn't really need asm/processor.h anymore. Everything
it uses has moved to other header files. So remove that include.
processor.h is a nasty header that includes lots of
other headers and makes it prone to include loops. Removing the
include here makes asm/atomic.h a "leaf" header that can
be safely included in most other headers.
The only fallout is in the lib/atomic tester which relied on
this implicit include. Give it an explicit include.
(the include is in ifdef because the user is also in ifdef)
