Now the last users of show_stack() got converted to use an explicit log
level, show_stack_loglvl() can drop it's redundant suffix and become once
again well known show_stack().

<id>urn:sha1:8539c1288ddc23eef0fe71e1bcecc04b3fc6a9ee</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, the log-level of show_stack() depends on a platform
realization.  It creates situations where the headers are printed with
lower log level or higher than the stacktrace (depending on a platform or
user).

Furthermore, it forces the logic decision from user to an architecture
side.  In result, some users as sysrq/kdb/etc are doing tricks with
temporary rising console_loglevel while printing their messages.  And in
result it not only may print unwanted messages from other CPUs, but also
omit printing at all in the unlucky case where the printk() was deferred.

Introducing log-level parameter and KERN_UNSUPPRESSED [1] seems an easier
approach than introducing more printk buffers.  Also, it will consolidate
printings with headers.

Introduce show_stack_loglvl(), that eventually will substitute
show_stack().

CONFIG_PREEMPTION is selected by CONFIG_PREEMPT and by CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT.
Both PREEMPT and PREEMPT_RT require the same functionality which today
depends on CONFIG_PREEMPT.

Switch the preemption and entry code over to use CONFIG_PREEMPTION. Add
PREEMPT_RT output to die().

state is reported reliable.

Avoid mixture of task == NULL and task == current meaning the same
thing and simply always initialize task with current in unwind_start.

<content type='text'>
Remove pointless stack recursion on stack type ... warning, which
only confuses people. There is no way to make backchain unwinder 100%
reliable. When a task is interrupted in-between stack frame allocation
and backchain write instructions new stack frame backchain pointer is
left uninitialized (there are also sometimes additional instruction
in-between stack frame allocation and backchain write instructions due
to gcc shrink-wrapping). In attempt to unwind such stack the unwinder
would still try to use that invalid backchain value and perform all kind
of sanity checks on it to make sure we are not pointed out of stack. In
some cases that invalid backchain value would be 0 and we would falsely
treat next stackframe as pt_regs and again gprs[15] in those pt_regs
might happen to point at some address within the task's stack.

There never have been distributions that shiped with CONFIG_SMP=n for
s390. In addition the kernel currently doesn't even compile with
CONFIG_SMP=n for s390. Most likely it wouldn't even work, even if we
fix the compile error, since nobody tests it, since there is no use
case that I can think of.
Therefore simply enforce CONFIG_SMP and get rid of some more or
less unused code.

<title>s390/unwind: introduce stack unwind API</title>

<id>urn:sha1:78c98f9074135d3dab4e39544e0a537f92388fce</id>
<content type='text'>
Rework the dump_trace() stack unwinder interface to support different
unwinding algorithms. The new interface looks like this:

	struct unwind_state state;
	unwind_for_each_frame(&amp;state, task, regs, start_stack)
		do_something(state.sp, state.ip, state.reliable);

The unwind_bc.c file contains the implementation for the classic
back-chain unwinder.

One positive side effect of the new code is it now handles ftraced
functions gracefully. It prints the real name of the return function
instead of 'return_to_handler'.

With pointer obfuscation the output of show_registers() became quite useless:

Krnl PSW : (____ptrval____) (____ptrval____) (__list_add_valid+0x98/0xa8)

In order to print the psw mask and address use %px instead of %p.
And the output looks again like this:

Krnl PSW : 0404d00180000000 00000000007c0dd0 (__list_add_valid+0x98/0xa8)
