Most users will want to unregister bdi when dropping last reference to a
bdi. Only a few users (like block devices) want to play more complex
tricks with bdi registration and unregistration. So unregister bdi when
the last reference to bdi is dropped and just make sure we don't
unregister the bdi the second time if it is already unregistered.

We've added a considerable amount of fixes for stalls and issues
with the blk-mq scheduling in the 4.11 series since forking
off the for-4.12/block branch. We need to do improvements on
top of that for 4.12, so pull in the previous fixes to make
our lives easier going forward.

Rename cgwb_bdi_destroy() to cgwb_bdi_unregister() as it gets called
from bdi_unregister() which is not necessarily called from bdi_destroy()
and thus the name is somewhat misleading.

Currently we wait for all cgwbs to get released in cgwb_bdi_destroy()
(called from bdi_unregister()). That is however unnecessary now when
cgwb->bdi is a proper refcounted reference (thus bdi cannot get
released before all cgwbs are released) and when cgwb_bdi_destroy()
shuts down writeback directly.

Currently we waited for all cgwbs to get freed in cgwb_bdi_destroy()
which also means that writeback has been shutdown on them. Since this
wait is going away, directly shutdown writeback on cgwbs from
cgwb_bdi_destroy() to avoid live writeback structures after
bdi_unregister() has finished. To make that safe with concurrent
shutdown from cgwb_release_workfn(), we also have to make sure
wb_shutdown() returns only after the bdi_writeback structure is really
shutdown.

Currently root wb_writeback structure is added to bdi->wb_list in
bdi_init() and never removed. That is different from all other
wb_writeback structures which get added to the list when created and
removed from it before wb_shutdown().
So move list addition of root bdi_writeback to bdi_register() and list
removal of all wb_writeback structures to wb_shutdown(). That way a
wb_writeback structure is on bdi->wb_list if and only if it can handle
writeback and it will make it easier for us to handle shutdown of all
wb_writeback structures in bdi_unregister().

congested->bdi pointer is used only to be able to remove congested
structure from bdi->cgwb_congested_tree on structure release. Moreover
the pointer can become NULL when we unregister the bdi. Rename the field
to __bdi and add a comment to make it more explicit this is internal
stuff of memcg writeback code and people should not use the field as
such use will be likely race prone.
We do not bother with converting congested->bdi to a proper refcounted
reference. It will be slightly ugly to special-case bdi->wb.congested to
avoid effectively a cyclic reference of bdi to itself and the reference
gets cleared from bdi_unregister() making it impossible to reference
a freed bdi.

Before commit 452b94b8c8c7 ("mm/swap: don't BUG_ON() due to
uninitialized swap slot cache"), the following bug is reported,
------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel BUG at mm/swap_slots.c:270!
invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP
CPU: 5 PID: 1745 Comm: (sd-pam) Not tainted 4.11.0-rc1-00243-g24c534bb161b #1
Hardware name: System manufacturer System Product Name/Z170-K, BIOS 1803 05/06/2016

---[ end trace aefc9ede53e0ab21 ]---
This is raised by the BUG_ON(!swap_slot_cache_initialized) in
free_swap_slot(). This is incorrect, because even if the swap slots
cache fails to be initialized, the swap should operate properly without
the swap slots cache. And the use_swap_slot_cache check later in the
function will protect the uninitialized swap slots cache case.
In commit 452b94b8c8c7, the BUG_ON() is replaced by WARN_ON_ONCE(). In
the patch, the WARN_ON_ONCE() is removed too.

This BUG_ON() triggered for me once at shutdown, and I don't see a
reason for the check. The code correctly checks whether the swap slot
cache is usable or not, so an uninitialized swap slot cache is not
actually problematic afaik.
I've temporarily just switched the BUG_ON() to a WARN_ON_ONCE(), since
I'm not sure why that seemingly pointless check was there. I suspect
the real fix is to just remove it entirely, but for now we'll warn about
it but not bring the machine down.

Commit bfc8c90139eb ("mem-hotplug: implement get/put_online_mems")
introduced new functions get/put_online_mems() and mem_hotplug_begin/end()
in order to allow similar semantics for memory hotplug like for cpu
hotplug.
The corresponding functions for cpu hotplug are get/put_online_cpus()
and cpu_hotplug_begin/done() for cpu hotplug.
The commit however missed to introduce functions that would serialize
memory hotplug operations like they are done for cpu hotplug with
cpu_maps_update_begin/done().
This basically leaves mem_hotplug.active_writer unprotected and allows
concurrent writers to modify it, which may lead to problems as outlined
by commit f931ab479dd2 ("mm: fix devm_memremap_pages crash, use
mem_hotplug_{begin, done}").
That commit was extended again with commit b5d24fda9c3d ("mm,
devm_memremap_pages: hold device_hotplug lock over mem_hotplug_{begin,
done}") which serializes memory hotplug operations for some call sites
by using the device_hotplug lock.
In addition with commit 3fc21924100b ("mm: validate device_hotplug is held
for memory hotplug") a sanity check was added to mem_hotplug_begin() to
verify that the device_hotplug lock is held.
This in turn triggers the following warning on s390:
WARNING: CPU: 6 PID: 1 at drivers/base/core.c:643 assert_held_device_hotplug+0x4a/0x58
Call Trace:
assert_held_device_hotplug+0x40/0x58)

kernel_init_freeable+0x228/0x2d8

kernel_thread_starter+0x6/0xc
One possible fix would be to add more lock_device_hotplug() and
unlock_device_hotplug() calls around each call site of
mem_hotplug_begin/end(). But that would give the device_hotplug lock
additional semantics it better should not have (serialize memory hotplug
operations).
Instead add a new memory_add_remove_lock which has the similar semantics
like cpu_add_remove_lock for cpu hotplug.
To keep things hopefully a bit easier the lock will be locked and unlocked
within the mem_hotplug_begin/end() functions.

When vmalloc() fails it prints a very lengthy message with all the
details about memory consumption assuming that it happened due to OOM.
However, vmalloc() can also fail due to fatal signal pending. In such
case the message is quite confusing because it suggests that it is OOM
but the numbers suggest otherwise. The messages can also pollute
console considerably.
Don't warn when vmalloc() fails due to fatal signal pending.

Merge 5-level page table prep from Kirill Shutemov:
"Here's relatively low-risk part of 5-level paging patchset. Merging it
now will make x86 5-level paging enabling in v4.12 easier.
The first patch is actually x86-specific: detect 5-level paging
support. It boils down to single define.
The rest of patchset converts Linux MMU abstraction from 4- to 5-level
paging.
Enabling of new abstraction in most cases requires adding single line
of code in arch-specific code. The rest is taken care by asm-generic/.
Changes to mm/ code are mostly mechanical: add support for new page
table level -- p4d_t -- where we deal with pud_t now.

quarantine_remove_cache() frees all pending objects that belong to the
cache, before we destroy the cache itself. However there are currently
two possibilities how it can fail to do so.
First, another thread can hold some of the objects from the cache in
temp list in quarantine_put(). quarantine_put() has a windows of
enabled interrupts, and on_each_cpu() in quarantine_remove_cache() can
finish right in that window. These objects will be later freed into the
destroyed cache.
Then, quarantine_reduce() has the same problem. It grabs a batch of
objects from the global quarantine, then unlocks quarantine_lock and
then frees the batch. quarantine_remove_cache() can finish while some
objects from the cache are still in the local to_free list in
quarantine_reduce().
Fix the race with quarantine_put() by disabling interrupts for the whole
duration of quarantine_put(). In combination with on_each_cpu() in
quarantine_remove_cache() it ensures that quarantine_remove_cache()
either sees the objects in the per-cpu list or in the global list.
Fix the race with quarantine_reduce() by protecting quarantine_reduce()
with srcu critical section and then doing synchronize_srcu() at the end
of quarantine_remove_cache().
I've done some assessment of how good synchronize_srcu() works in this
case. And on a 4 CPU VM I see that it blocks waiting for pending read
critical sections in about 2-3% of cases. Which looks good to me.
I suspect that these races are the root cause of some GPFs that I
episodically hit. Previously I did not have any explanation for them.

I am not sure about backporting. The bug is quite hard to trigger, I've
seen it few times during our massive continuous testing (however, it
could be cause of some other episodic stray crashes as it leads to
memory corruption...). If it is triggered, the consequences are very
bad -- almost definite bad memory corruption. The fix is non trivial
and has chances of introducing new bugs. I am also not sure how
actively people use KASAN on older releases.

We see reported stalls/lockups in quarantine_remove_cache() on machines
with large amounts of RAM. quarantine_remove_cache() needs to scan
whole quarantine in order to take out all objects belonging to the
cache. Quarantine is currently 1/32-th of RAM, e.g. on a machine with
256GB of memory that will be 8GB. Moreover quarantine scanning is a
walk over uncached linked list, which is slow.
Add cond_resched() after scanning of each non-empty batch of objects.
Batches are specifically kept of reasonable size for quarantine_put().
On a machine with 256GB of RAM we should have ~512 non-empty batches,
each with 16MB of objects.

The following test case triggers BUG() in munlock_vma_pages_range():
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int fd;
system("mount -t tmpfs -o huge=always none /mnt");
fd = open("/mnt/test", O_CREAT | O_RDWR);
ftruncate(fd, 4UL << 20);
mmap(NULL, 4UL << 20, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED | MAP_FIXED | MAP_LOCKED, fd, 0);
mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED | MAP_LOCKED, fd, 0);
munlockall();
return 0;
}
The second mmap() create PTE-mapping of the first huge page in file. It
makes kernel munlock the page as we never keep PTE-mapped page mlocked.
On munlockall() when we handle vma created by the first mmap(),
munlock_vma_page() returns page_mask == 0, as the page is not mlocked
anymore. On next iteration follow_page_mask() return tail page, but
page_mask is HPAGE_NR_PAGES - 1. It makes us skip to the first tail
page of the next huge page and step on
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PageMlocked(page)).
The fix is not use the page_mask from follow_page_mask() at all. It has
no use for us.

it's TTU_MUNLOCK.

userfaultfd_remove() has to be execute before zapping the pagetables or
UFFDIO_COPY could keep filling pages after zap_page_range returned,
which would result in non zero data after a MADV_DONTNEED.
However userfaultfd_remove() may have to release the mmap_sem. This was
handled correctly in MADV_REMOVE, but MADV_DONTNEED accessed a
potentially stale vma (the very vma passed to zap_page_range(vma, ...)).
The fix consists in revalidating the vma in case userfaultfd_remove()
had to release the mmap_sem.
This also optimizes away an unnecessary down_read/up_read in the
MADV_REMOVE case if UFFD_EVENT_FORK had to be delivered.
It all remains zero runtime cost in case CONFIG_USERFAULTFD=n as
userfaultfd_remove() will be defined as "true" at build time.

This is a chicken and egg issue where the kernel try to get free memory
when allocating per node data in mem_cgroup_init(), but in that path
mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim() is called which assumes that these data
are allocated.
As mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim() is best effort, it should return when
these data are not yet allocated.
This patch also fixes potential null pointer access in
mem_cgroup_remove_from_trees() and mem_cgroup_update_tree().

Commit 13ad59df67f1 ("mm, page_alloc: avoid page_to_pfn() when merging
buddies") moved the check for memory holes out of page_is_buddy() and
had the callers do the check.
But this wasn't done correctly in one place which caused ia64 to crash
very early in boot.
Update to fix that and make ia64 boot again.

bdi_writeback_congested structures get created for each blkcg and bdi
regardless whether bdi is registered or not. When they are created in
unregistered bdi and the request queue (and thus bdi) is then destroyed
while blkg still holds reference to bdi_writeback_congested structure,
this structure will be referencing freed bdi and last wb_congested_put()
will try to remove the structure from already freed bdi.
With commit 165a5e22fafb "block: Move bdi_unregister() to
del_gendisk()", SCSI started to destroy bdis without calling
bdi_unregister() first (previously it was calling bdi_unregister() even
for unregistered bdis) and thus the code detaching
bdi_writeback_congested in cgwb_bdi_destroy() was not triggered and we
started hitting this use-after-free bug. It is enough to boot a KVM
instance with virtio-scsi device to trigger this behavior.
Fix the problem by detaching bdi_writeback_congested structures in
bdi_exit() instead of bdi_unregister(). This is also more logical as
they can get attached to bdi regardless whether it ever got registered
or not.

SCSI can call device_add_disk() several times for one request queue when
a device in unbound and bound, creating new gendisk each time. This will
lead to bdi being repeatedly registered and unregistered. This was not a
big problem until commit 165a5e22fafb "block: Move bdi_unregister() to
del_gendisk()" since bdi was only registered repeatedly (bdi_register()
handles repeated calls fine, only we ended up leaking reference to
gendisk due to overwriting bdi->owner) but unregistered only in
blk_cleanup_queue() which didn't get called repeatedly. After
165a5e22fafb we were doing correct bdi_register() - bdi_unregister()
cycles however bdi_unregister() is not prepared for it. So make sure
bdi_unregister() cleans up bdi in such a way that it is prepared for
a possible following bdi_register() call.
An easy way to provoke this behavior is to enable
CONFIG_DEBUG_TEST_DRIVER_REMOVE and use scsi_debug driver to create a
scsi disk which immediately hangs without this fix.

Pull vfs 'statx()' update from Al Viro.
This adds the new extended stat() interface that internally subsumes our
previous stat interfaces, and allows user mode to specify in more detail
what kind of information it wants.
It also allows for some explicit synchronization information to be
passed to the filesystem, which can be relevant for network filesystems:
is the cached value ok, or do you need open/close consistency, or what?
From David Howells.

interface was posted June 29, 2010:

Add a system call to make extended file information available, including
file creation and some attribute flags where available through the
underlying filesystem.
The getattr inode operation is altered to take two additional arguments: a
u32 request_mask and an unsigned int flags that indicate the
synchronisation mode. This change is propagated to the vfs_getattr*()
function.
Functions like vfs_stat() are now inline wrappers around new functions
vfs_statx() and vfs_statx_fd() to reduce stack usage.
========
OVERVIEW
========
The idea was initially proposed as a set of xattrs that could be retrieved
with getxattr(), but the general preference proved to be for a new syscall
with an extended stat structure.
A number of requests were gathered for features to be included. The
following have been included:
(1) Make the fields a consistent size on all arches and make them large.
(2) Spare space, request flags and information flags are provided for
future expansion.
(3) Better support for the y2038 problem [Arnd Bergmann] (tv_sec is an
__s64).
(4) Creation time: The SMB protocol carries the creation time, which could
be exported by Samba, which will in turn help CIFS make use of
FS-Cache as that can be used for coherency data (stx_btime).
This is also specified in NFSv4 as a recommended attribute and could
be exported by NFSD [Steve French].
(5) Lightweight stat: Ask for just those details of interest, and allow a
netfs (such as NFS) to approximate anything not of interest, possibly
without going to the server [Trond Myklebust, Ulrich Drepper, Andreas
Dilger] (AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC).
(6) Heavyweight stat: Force a netfs to go to the server, even if it thinks
its cached attributes are up to date [Trond Myklebust]
(AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC).
And the following have been left out for future extension:
(7) Data version number: Could be used by userspace NFS servers [Aneesh
Kumar].
Can also be used to modify fill_post_wcc() in NFSD which retrieves
i_version directly, but has just called vfs_getattr(). It could get
it from the kstat struct if it used vfs_xgetattr() instead.
(There's disagreement on the exact semantics of a single field, since
not all filesystems do this the same way).
(8) BSD stat compatibility: Including more fields from the BSD stat such
as creation time (st_btime) and inode generation number (st_gen)
[Jeremy Allison, Bernd Schubert].
(9) Inode generation number: Useful for FUSE and userspace NFS servers
[Bernd Schubert].
(This was asked for but later deemed unnecessary with the
open-by-handle capability available and caused disagreement as to
whether it's a security hole or not).
(10) Extra coherency data may be useful in making backups [Andreas Dilger].
(No particular data were offered, but things like last backup
timestamp, the data version number and the DOS archive bit would come
into this category).
(11) Allow the filesystem to indicate what it can/cannot provide: A
filesystem can now say it doesn't support a standard stat feature if
that isn't available, so if, for instance, inode numbers or UIDs don't
exist or are fabricated locally...
(This requires a separate system call - I have an fsinfo() call idea
for this).
(12) Store a 16-byte volume ID in the superblock that can be returned in
struct xstat [Steve French].
(Deferred to fsinfo).
(13) Include granularity fields in the time data to indicate the
granularity of each of the times (NFSv4 time_delta) [Steve French].
(Deferred to fsinfo).
(14) FS_IOC_GETFLAGS value. These could be translated to BSD's st_flags.
Note that the Linux IOC flags are a mess and filesystems such as Ext4
define flags that aren't in linux/fs.h, so translation in the kernel
may be a necessity (or, possibly, we provide the filesystem type too).
(Some attributes are made available in stx_attributes, but the general
feeling was that the IOC flags were to ext[234]-specific and shouldn't
be exposed through statx this way).
(15) Mask of features available on file (eg: ACLs, seclabel) [Brad Boyer,
Michael Kerrisk].
(Deferred, probably to fsinfo. Finding out if there's an ACL or
seclabal might require extra filesystem operations).
(16) Femtosecond-resolution timestamps [Dave Chinner].
(A __reserved field has been left in the statx_timestamp struct for
this - if there proves to be a need).
(17) A set multiple attributes syscall to go with this.
===============
NEW SYSTEM CALL
===============
The new system call is:
int ret = statx(int dfd,
const char *filename,
unsigned int flags,
unsigned int mask,
struct statx *buffer);
The dfd, filename and flags parameters indicate the file to query, in a
similar way to fstatat(). There is no equivalent of lstat() as that can be
emulated with statx() by passing AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW in flags. There is
also no equivalent of fstat() as that can be emulated by passing a NULL
filename to statx() with the fd of interest in dfd.
Whether or not statx() synchronises the attributes with the backing store
can be controlled by OR'ing a value into the flags argument (this typically
only affects network filesystems):
(1) AT_STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT tells statx() to behave as stat() does in this
respect.
(2) AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC will require a network filesystem to synchronise
its attributes with the server - which might require data writeback to
occur to get the timestamps correct.
(3) AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC will suppress synchronisation with the server in a
network filesystem. The resulting values should be considered
approximate.
mask is a bitmask indicating the fields in struct statx that are of
interest to the caller. The user should set this to STATX_BASIC_STATS to
get the basic set returned by stat(). It should be noted that asking for
more information may entail extra I/O operations.
buffer points to the destination for the data. This must be 256 bytes in
size.
======================
MAIN ATTRIBUTES RECORD
======================
The following structures are defined in which to return the main attribute
set:
struct statx_timestamp {
__s64 tv_sec;
__s32 tv_nsec;
__s32 __reserved;
};
struct statx {
__u32 stx_mask;
__u32 stx_blksize;
__u64 stx_attributes;
__u32 stx_nlink;
__u32 stx_uid;
__u32 stx_gid;
__u16 stx_mode;
__u16 __spare0[1];
__u64 stx_ino;
__u64 stx_size;
__u64 stx_blocks;
__u64 __spare1[1];
struct statx_timestamp stx_atime;
struct statx_timestamp stx_btime;
struct statx_timestamp stx_ctime;
struct statx_timestamp stx_mtime;
__u32 stx_rdev_major;
__u32 stx_rdev_minor;
__u32 stx_dev_major;
__u32 stx_dev_minor;
__u64 __spare2[14];
};
The defined bits in request_mask and stx_mask are:
STATX_TYPE Want/got stx_mode & S_IFMT
STATX_MODE Want/got stx_mode & ~S_IFMT
STATX_NLINK Want/got stx_nlink
STATX_UID Want/got stx_uid
STATX_GID Want/got stx_gid
STATX_ATIME Want/got stx_atime{,_ns}
STATX_MTIME Want/got stx_mtime{,_ns}
STATX_CTIME Want/got stx_ctime{,_ns}
STATX_INO Want/got stx_ino
STATX_SIZE Want/got stx_size
STATX_BLOCKS Want/got stx_blocks
STATX_BASIC_STATS [The stuff in the normal stat struct]
STATX_BTIME Want/got stx_btime{,_ns}
STATX_ALL [All currently available stuff]
stx_btime is the file creation time, stx_mask is a bitmask indicating the
data provided and __spares*[] are where as-yet undefined fields can be
placed.
Time fields are structures with separate seconds and nanoseconds fields
plus a reserved field in case we want to add even finer resolution. Note
that times will be negative if before 1970; in such a case, the nanosecond
fields will also be negative if not zero.
The bits defined in the stx_attributes field convey information about a
file, how it is accessed, where it is and what it does. The following
attributes map to FS_*_FL flags and are the same numerical value:
STATX_ATTR_COMPRESSED File is compressed by the fs
STATX_ATTR_IMMUTABLE File is marked immutable
STATX_ATTR_APPEND File is append-only
STATX_ATTR_NODUMP File is not to be dumped
STATX_ATTR_ENCRYPTED File requires key to decrypt in fs
Within the kernel, the supported flags are listed by:
KSTAT_ATTR_FS_IOC_FLAGS
[Are any other IOC flags of sufficient general interest to be exposed
through this interface?]
New flags include:
STATX_ATTR_AUTOMOUNT Object is an automount trigger
These are for the use of GUI tools that might want to mark files specially,
depending on what they are.
Fields in struct statx come in a number of classes:
(0) stx_dev_*, stx_blksize.
These are local system information and are always available.
(1) stx_mode, stx_nlinks, stx_uid, stx_gid, stx_[amc]time, stx_ino,
stx_size, stx_blocks.
These will be returned whether the caller asks for them or not. The
corresponding bits in stx_mask will be set to indicate whether they
actually have valid values.
If the caller didn't ask for them, then they may be approximated. For
example, NFS won't waste any time updating them from the server,
unless as a byproduct of updating something requested.
If the values don't actually exist for the underlying object (such as
UID or GID on a DOS file), then the bit won't be set in the stx_mask,
even if the caller asked for the value. In such a case, the returned
value will be a fabrication.
Note that there are instances where the type might not be valid, for
instance Windows reparse points.
(2) stx_rdev_*.
This will be set only if stx_mode indicates we're looking at a
blockdev or a chardev, otherwise will be 0.
(3) stx_btime.
Similar to (1), except this will be set to 0 if it doesn't exist.
=======
TESTING
=======
The following test program can be used to test the statx system call:
samples/statx/test-statx.c
Just compile and run, passing it paths to the files you want to examine.
The file is built automatically if CONFIG_SAMPLES is enabled.
Here's some example output. Firstly, an NFS directory that crosses to
another FSID. Note that the AUTOMOUNT attribute is set because transiting
this directory will cause d_automount to be invoked by the VFS.
[root@andromeda ~]# /tmp/test-statx -A /warthog/data
statx(/warthog/data) = 0

accessors into <linux/sched/signal.h>
task_struct::signal and task_struct::sighand are pointers, which would normally make it
straightforward to not define those types in sched.h.
That is not so, because the types are accompanied by a myriad of APIs (macros and inline
functions) that dereference them.
Split the types and the APIs out of sched.h and move them into a new header, <linux/sched/signal.h>.
With this change sched.h does not know about 'struct signal' and 'struct sighand' anymore,
trying to put accessors into sched.h as a test fails the following way:
./include/linux/sched.h: In function ‘test_signal_types’:
./include/linux/sched.h:2461:18: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type ‘struct signal_struct’
^
This reduces the size and complexity of sched.h significantly.
Update all headers and .c code that relied on getting the signal handling
functionality from <linux/sched.h> to include <linux/sched/signal.h>.
The list of affected files in the preparatory patch was partly generated by
grepping for the APIs, and partly by doing coverage build testing, both
all[yes|mod|def|no]config builds on 64-bit and 32-bit x86, and an array of
cross-architecture builds.
Nevertheless some (trivial) build breakage is still expected related to rare
Kconfig combinations and in-flight patches to various kernel code, but most
of it should be handled by this patch.

dependency
Instead of including the full <linux/signal.h>, we are going to include the
types-only <linux/signal_types.h> header in <linux/sched.h>, to further
decouple the scheduler header from the signal headers.
This means that various files which relied on the full <linux/signal.h> need
to be updated to gain an explicit dependency on it.
Update the code that relies on sched.h's inclusion of the <linux/signal.h> header.

<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.
