68db0cf106 sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to <linux/sched/task_stack.h>
We are going to split <linux/sched/task_stack.h> out of <linux/sched.h>, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder <linux/sched/task_stack.h> file that just
maps to <linux/sched.h> to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

88a7c26af8 perf: Move task_pt_regs sampling into arch code
On x86_64, at least, task_pt_regs may be only partially initialized
in many contexts, so x86_64 should not use it without extra care
from interrupt context, let alone NMI context.

This will allow x86_64 to override the logic and will supply some
scratch space to use to make a cleaner copy of user regs.

5b75a6af11 arm64: perf: don't rely on layout of pt_regs when grabbing sp or pc
The current perf_regs code relies on sp and pc sitting just off the end
of the pt_regs->regs array. This is ugly and fragile, so this patch
checks for these register explicitly and returns the appropriate field.

ff268ff7f3 arm64: fix !CONFIG_COMPAT build failures
Recent arm64 builds using CONFIG_ARM64_64K_PAGES are failing with:

  arch/arm64/kernel/perf_regs.c: In function ‘perf_reg_abi’:
  arch/arm64/kernel/perf_regs.c:41:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘is_compat_thread’

  arch/arm64/kernel/perf_event.c:1398:2: error: unknown type name ‘compat_uptr_t’

This is due to some recent arm64 perf commits with compat support:

  commit 23c7d70d55:
    ARM64: perf: add support for frame pointer unwinding in compat mode

  commit 2ee0d7fd36:
    ARM64: perf: add support for perf registers API

Those patches make the arm64 kernel unbuildable if CONFIG_COMPAT is not
defined and CONFIG_ARM64_64K_PAGES depends on !CONFIG_COMPAT. This patch
allows the arm64 kernel to build with and without CONFIG_COMPAT.

2ee0d7fd36 ARM64: perf: add support for perf registers API
This patch implements the functions required for the perf registers API,
allowing the perf tool to interface kernel register dumps with libunwind
in order to provide userspace backtracing.
Compat mode is also supported.

Only the general purpose user space registers are exported, i.e.:
 PERF_REG_ARM_X0,
 ...
 PERF_REG_ARM_X28,
 PERF_REG_ARM_FP,
 PERF_REG_ARM_LR,
 PERF_REG_ARM_SP,
 PERF_REG_ARM_PC
and not the PERF_REG_ARM_V* registers.
