Cover letter [patch 0/8] Immediate Values (now with merged x86 support)

Hi Andrew,

Here is the latest version of the Immediate Values. It supports x86 as a single architecture. I also removed the *_early API which could have been confusing to developers : choosing the right algorithm is now done internally by keeping track of where we are in the kernel boot process.

The patchset depends on :
"Instrumentation menu removal"
and
"Text Edit Lock".

It is based on 2.6.24-rc2-git3 and applies in this order :
