The xlc compiler seems to behave in a different way that gcc when it
comes the inline asm. There were two problems with the code with xlc:
- The TOC read in mca_patcher_base_patch_hook used the syntax
register unsigned long toc asm("r2") to read $r2 (the TOC
pointer). With gcc this seems to behave as expected but with xlc
the result in toc is not the same as $r2. I updated the code to use
asm volatile ("std 2, %0" : "=m" (toc)) to load the TOC pointer.
- The OPAL_PATCHER_BEGIN macro is meant to be the first thing in a
hook. On PPC64 it loads the correct TOC pointer (thanks to
mca_patcher_base_patch_hook) and saves the old one. The
OPAL_PATCHER_END macro restores the TOC pointer. Because we *need*
the TOC to be correct before it is accessed in the hook the
OPAL_PATCHER_BEGIN macro MUST come first. We did this and all was
well with gcc. With xlc on the other hand there was a TOC access
before the assembly inserted by OPAL_PATCHER_BEGIN. To fix this
quickly I broke each hook into a pair of function with the
OPAL_PATCHER_* macros on the top level functions. This works around
the issue but is not a clean way to fix this. In the future we
should 1) either update overwrite to not need this, or 2) figure
out why xlc is not inserting the asm before the first TOC read.

Oversubscribe stipulates that we allow more procs on the node than assigned slots - it has nothing to do with the number of available pe's. Let overload directives handle the pe situation.
This commit fixes some bugs uncovered during thread testing of
2.0.1rc1. With these fixes the component is running cleanly with
threads.

Adding a mutex to thje ompi_file_t structure allows to have a per-file handle
mutex lock for both ROMIO and OMPIO. I double checked that the size of the
ompi_file_t structure is still below the size of the predefined_file_t structure,
so we should be good from the backward compatibility perspective.
Also, remove the lock/unlock in the file_open ompi-interface routines of romio314.
The global lock in the romio component does probably not work, it is easy to construct a testcase where two threads perform collective I/O operations on different file handles. With a global lock it is easy to deadlock. THe lock has to be at least on the file handle basis.
move the mutex to file/file.c to avoid duplicate symbol problem in file_open.c pfile_open.c
This commit should restore the pre-non-blocking behavior of the CID
allocator when threads are used. There are two primary changes: 1)
do not hold the cid allocator lock past the end of a request callback,
and 2) if a lower id communicator is detected during CID allocation
back off and let the lower id communicator finish before continuing.
