Merge tag 'cpu-to-thread_info-v5.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux
Pull thread_info update to move 'cpu' back from task_struct from Kees Cook:
"Cross-architecture update to move task_struct::cpu back into
thread_info on arm64, x86, s390, powerpc, and riscv. All Acked by arch
maintainers.
Quoting Ard Biesheuvel:
'Move task_struct::cpu back into thread_info
Keeping CPU in task_struct is problematic for architectures that
define raw_smp_processor_id() in terms of this field, as it
requires linux/sched.h to be included, which causes a lot of pain
in terms of circular dependencies (aka 'header soup')
This series moves it back into thread_info (where it came from)
for all architectures that enable THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK, addressing
the header soup issue as well as some pointless differences in the
implementations of task_cpu() and set_task_cpu()'"
* tag 'cpu-to-thread_info-v5.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux:
riscv: rely on core code to keep thread_info::cpu updated
powerpc: smp: remove hack to obtain offset of task_struct::cpu
sched: move CPU field back into thread_info if THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK=y
powerpc: add CPU field to struct thread_info
s390: add CPU field to struct thread_info
x86: add CPU field to struct thread_info
arm64: add CPU field to struct thread_info
