Benjamin Herrenschmidt cbc9565ee8 powerpc: Remove ksp_limit on ppc64 ... We've been keeping that field in thread_struct for a while, it contains the "limit" of the current stack pointer and is meant to be used for detecting stack overflows. It has a few problems however: - First, it was never actually *used* on 64-bit. Set and updated but not actually exploited - When switching stack to/from irq and softirq stacks, it's update is racy unless we hard disable interrupts, which is costly. This is fine on 32-bit as we don't soft-disable there but not on 64-bit. Thus rather than fixing 2 in order to implement 1 in some hypothetical future, let's remove the code completely from 64-bit. In order to avoid a clutter of ifdef's, we remove the updates from C code completely during interrupt stack switching, and instead maintain it from the asm helper that is used to do the stack switching in the first place.
