Patch to provide Sun compiler compatible versions of SPARC inline assembly
routines

This patch provides Sun compiler compatible versions of the inline SPARC
assembly functions needed to build the tree.   With this I can complete a full
build, but since I've never gotten the Xorg server to work on SPARC hardware (I
think there may be problems in the PCI bus code for sparc, and recent
discussion on xfree86 at xfree86.org would seem to agree), I can't claim to have
tested this or vouch for it's correctness.   Also note that it's sparcv8plus
code, which means an UltraSPARC/sun4u CPU or better is needed, but since the
only SPARC machines with PCI bus'es also had those CPU's, that seems
reasonable.
