Currently, all callers to randomize_range() set the length to 0 and
calculate end by adding a constant to the start address. We can simplify
the API to remove a bunch of needless checks and variables.
Use the new randomize_addr(start, range) call to set the requested
address.

When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle, the
output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative. Suppress
messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just
emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN".
We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new
.cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the interrupted
PC to see if it lies within that section.
This commit suitably tags x86 and tile idle routines, and only adds in
the minimal framework for other architectures.

thread_saved_pc() was using a completely bogus method to get the return
address. Since switch_to() was previously inlined, there was no sane way
to know where on the stack the return address was stored. Now with the
frame of a sleeping thread well defined, this can be implemented correctly.

Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have
a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing
support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends. That changed
when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file.
This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h
in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig. The advantage
in doing so is that module.h itself sources about 15 other headers;
adding significantly to what we feed cpp, and it can obscure what
headers we are effectively using.
Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for
export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each obj-y/bool instance
for the presence of either and replace as needed. Build testing
revealed some implicit header usage that was fixed up accordingly.
Note that some bool/obj-y instances remain since module.h is
the header for some exception table entry stuff, and for things
like __init_or_module (code that is tossed when MODULES=n).

The first instruction of the SYSENTER entry runs on its own tiny
stack. That stack can be used if a #DB or NMI is delivered before
the SYSENTER prologue switches to a real stack.
We have code in place to prevent us from overflowing the tiny stack.
For added paranoia, add a canary to the stack and check it in
do_debug() -- that way, if something goes wrong with the #DB logic,
we'll eventually notice.

The FPU rewrite removed the dynamic allocations of 'struct fpu'.
But, this potentially wastes massive amounts of memory (2k per
task on systems that do not have AVX-512 for instance).
Instead of having a separate slab, this patch just appends the
space that we need to the 'task_struct' which we dynamically
allocate already. This saves from doing an extra slab
allocation at fork().
The only real downside here is that we have to stick everything
and the end of the task_struct. But, I think the
BUILD_BUG_ON()s I stuck in there should keep that from being too
fragile.

Pull x86 FPU updates from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree contains two main changes:
- The big FPU code rewrite: wide reaching cleanups and reorganization
that pulls all the FPU code together into a clean base in
arch/x86/fpu/.
The resulting code is leaner and faster, and much easier to
understand. This enables future work to further simplify the FPU
code (such as removing lazy FPU restores).
By its nature these changes have a substantial regression risk: FPU
code related bugs are long lived, because races are often subtle
and bugs mask as user-space failures that are difficult to track
back to kernel side backs. I'm aware of no unfixed (or even
suspected) FPU related regression so far.
- MPX support rework/fixes. As this is still not a released CPU
feature, there were some buglets in the code - should be much more
robust now (Dave Hansen)"

drop_fpu() and fpu_reset_state() are similar in functionality
and in scope, yet this is not apparent from their names.
drop_fpu() deactivates FPU contents (both the fpregs and the fpstate),
but leaves register contents intact in the eager-FPU case, mostly as an
optimization. It disables fpregs in the lazy FPU case. The drop_fpu()
method can be used to destroy FPU state in an optimized way, when we
know that a new state will be loaded before user-space might see
any remains of the old FPU state:
- such as in sys_exit()'s exit_thread() where we know this task
won't execute any user-space instructions anymore and the
next context switch cleans up the FPU. The old FPU state
might still be around in the eagerfpu case but won't be
saved.
- in __restore_xstate_sig(), where we use drop_fpu() before
copying a new state into the fpstate and activating that one.
No user-pace instructions can execute between those steps.
- in sys_execve()'s fpu__clear(): there we use drop_fpu() in
the !eagerfpu case, where it's equivalent to a full reinit.
fpu_reset_state() is a stronger version of drop_fpu(): both in
the eagerfpu and the lazy-FPU case it guarantees that fpregs
are reinitialized to init state. This method is used in cases
where we need a full reset:
- handle_signal() uses fpu_reset_state() to reset the FPU state
to init before executing a user-space signal handler. While we
have already saved the original FPU state at this point, and
always restore the original state, the signal handling code
still has to do this reinit, because signals may interrupt
any user-space instruction, and the FPU might be in various
intermediate states (such as an unbalanced x87 stack) that is
not immediately usable for general C signal handler code.
- __restore_xstate_sig() uses fpu_reset_state() when the signal
frame has no FP context. Since the signal handler may have
modified the FPU state, it gets reset back to init state.
- in another branch __restore_xstate_sig() uses fpu_reset_state()
to handle a restoration error: when restore_user_xstate() fails
to restore FPU state and we might have inconsistent FPU data,
fpu_reset_state() is used to reset it back to a known good
state.
- __kernel_fpu_end() uses fpu_reset_state() in an error branch.
This is in a 'must not trigger' error branch, so on bug-free
kernels this never triggers.
- fpu__restore() uses fpu_reset_state() in an error path
as well: if the fpstate was set up with invalid FPU state
(via ptrace or via a signal handler), then it's reset back
to init state.
- likewise, the scheduler's switch_fpu_finish() uses it in a
restoration error path too.
Move both drop_fpu() and fpu_reset_state() to the fpu__*() namespace
and harmonize their naming with their function:
fpu__drop()
fpu__reset()
This clearly shows that both methods operate on the full state of the
FPU, just like fpu__restore().
Also add comments to explain what each function does.

Now that we always allocate the FPU context as part of task_struct there's
no need for separate allocations - remove them and their primary failure
handling code.
( Note that there's still secondary error codes that have become superfluous,
those will be removed in separate patches. )
Move the somewhat misplaced setup_xstate_comp() call to the core.

and since this is a slowpath clarity comes first anyway.

The following commit:
f893959b08 ("x86/fpu: Don't abuse drop_init_fpu() in flush_thread()")
removed drop_init_fpu() usage from flush_thread(). This seems to break
things for me - the Go 1.4 test suite fails all over the place with
floating point comparision errors (offending commit found through
bisection).
The functional change was that flush_thread() after this commit
only calls restore_init_xstate() when both use_eager_fpu() and
!used_math() are true. drop_init_fpu() (now fpu_reset_state()) calls
restore_init_xstate() regardless of whether current used_math() - apply
the same logic here.
Switch used_math() -> tsk_used_math(tsk) to consistently use the grabbed
tsk instead of current, like in the rest of flush_thread().
