Log Message:
introduce a hack to workaround the savefpstate IPI get's NULL
struct fpstate *.

add a new entry point ipi_savefpstate() that is used for this IPI
instead of the plain ipi_savefpstate().  check for %o0 being NULL,
and if so, just return.

add event counters for the savefpstate IPI, and another one for
when it detects the NULL problem.

make the cpu_info struct xmpsg be aligned to a single cache line.

with this change applied (and another minor change in testing) my
SS20 with dual SM75's has survived for 17 hours on build.sh -j5,
and has reported 7 NULL savefps.  (the minor change seems to have
a significant effect at reducing this number, but more testing is
needed for it.)

XXX:  this is horrible and we really need to find the real problem
XXX:  but this should let people use sparc smp again, and fixes
XXX:  for the real problem can be tested by seeing if any of the
XXX:  savefp IPI null counter becomes non-zero.
