4fbbf651d7 [i386] Change semantics of __from_data16 and __from_text16
__from_data16 and __from_text16 now take a pointer to a
.data16/.text16 variable, and return the real-mode offset within the
appropriate segment.  This matches the use case for every occurrence
of these macros, and prevents potential future bugs such as that fixed
in commit d51d80f.  (The bug arose essentially because "&pointer" is
still syntactically valid.)

Add some of the missing parts to libkir.h.

6abfaa153b Towards making KEEP_IT_REAL work again.
Fix bug that caused over-allocation of .text16 and .data16 memory areas
by a factor of 16.

edcf89e2b0 Remove the automatic segment register save and restore; most users of
REAL_CODE() don't need it.

7a53d07027 Split out REAL_CODE() from REAL_EXEC(), preparatory to removing REAL_EXEC
completely.

3b525385af Removed REAL_FRAGMENT and REAL_CALL, and left just REAL_EXEC (which is
the only one we actually use).  This allows REAL_EXEC fragments to
contain proper references to constraints (e.g. "%w0"), rather than having
to force the use of specific registers.

Note that the "num_constraints" parameter is now completely obsolete, and
that we can probably reduce the syntax to something like
  __asm__ __volatile__ ( REAL_CODE ( "asm statements" )
                         : output constraints
                         : input constraints
                         : clobber );
which would look much more natural, and avoid the need to always specify
a clobber list.


Add userptr_t to libkir.h, to allow it to at least compile.

897313007b Add __{text,data}16_array, since there's no way I can see to make the
usual __{text,data}16 trick work with arrays.  gcc seems to accept the
__asm__ ( asmlabel ) only after the [] of the array declaration, not
before.

f7b963da51 (Redoing check-in lost by SourceForge's failure.)
Use .text16.data section with "aw" attributes, to avoid section type
conflicts when placing both code and data into .text16.

Add __from_{text16,data16}.

f8e087767b Allow access to variables in .text16 as well as .data16. Chained
interrupt vectors, for example, will be easiest to handle if placed in
.text16.

f4429533a6 Added methods for efficiently declaring and accessing variables in
.data16.  librm will need to supply "char *data16", i.e. the virtual
address of the start of .data16.

1a6ca649a2 Made copy_{to,from}_real volatile, so that they don't get optimised away.
Added REAL_FRAGMENT(), because it could conceivably be useful.
