SAL_CALL() always calls through the ia64_sal function pointer. I am adding new functionality that needs the same conventions as SAL_CALL (FP regs saved/restored, sal_lock acquired, etc), but doesn't use the ia64_sal function pointer. This patch pulls the body of SAL_CALL out into a new "IA64_FW_CALL" that takes care of these calling conventions, but allows the caller to specify either ia64_sal or some other firmware entry point.
