Without it, the following would be shown:

it where 'select FRAME_POINTER' is located.

ARCH_WANT_FRAME_POINTERS. For example, 'config UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER'
in arch/arm/Kconfig.debug.

arch: make TRACE_IRQFLAGS_NMI_SUPPORT generic

On most architectures, IRQ flag tracing is disabled in NMI context, and
architectures need to define and select TRACE_IRQFLAGS_NMI_SUPPORT in
order to enable this.

Commit:

859d069ee1ddd878 ("lockdep: Prepare for NMI IRQ state tracking")

Permitted IRQ flag tracing in NMI context, allowing lockdep to work in
NMI context where an architecture had suitable entry logic. At the time,
most architectures did not have such suitable entry logic, and this broke
lockdep on such architectures. Thus, this was partially disabled in
commit:

ed00495333ccc80f ("locking/lockdep: Fix TRACE_IRQFLAGS vs. NMIs")

... with architectures needing to select TRACE_IRQFLAGS_NMI_SUPPORT to
enable IRQ flag tracing in NMI context.

Currently TRACE_IRQFLAGS_NMI_SUPPORT is defined under
arch/x86/Kconfig.debug. Move it to arch/Kconfig so architectures can
select it without having to provide their own definition.

Since the regular TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT is selected by
arch/x86/Kconfig, the select of TRACE_IRQFLAGS_NMI_SUPPORT is moved
there too.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

x86, powerpc: Rename memcpy_mcsafe() to copy_mc_to_{user, kernel}()

In reaction to a proposal to introduce a memcpy_mcsafe_fast()
implementation Linus points out that memcpy_mcsafe() is poorly named
relative to communicating the scope of the interface. Specifically what
addresses are valid to pass as source, destination, and what faults /
exceptions are handled.

Of particular concern is that even though x86 might be able to handle
the semantics of copy_mc_to_user() with its common copy_user_generic()
implementation other archs likely need / want an explicit path for this
case:

Replace a single top-level memcpy_mcsafe() with either
copy_mc_to_user(), or copy_mc_to_kernel().

Introduce an x86 copy_mc_fragile() name as the rename for the
low-level x86 implementation formerly named memcpy_mcsafe(). It is used
as the slow / careful backend that is supplanted by a fast
copy_mc_generic() in a follow-on patch.

One side-effect of this reorganization is that separating copy_mc_64.S
to its own file means that perf no longer needs to track dependencies
for its memcpy_64.S benchmarks.

locking/lockdep: Fix TRACE_IRQFLAGS vs. NMIs

Prior to commit:

859d069ee1dd ("lockdep: Prepare for NMI IRQ state tracking")

IRQ state tracking was disabled in NMIs due to nmi_enter()
doing lockdep_off() -- with the obvious requirement that NMI entry
call nmi_enter() before trace_hardirqs_off().

[ AFAICT, PowerPC and SH violate this order on their NMI entry ]

However, that commit explicitly changed lockdep_hardirqs_*() to ignore
lockdep_off() and breaks every architecture that has irq-tracing in
it's NMI entry that hasn't been fixed up (x86 being the only fixed one
at this point).

The reason for this change is that by ignoring lockdep_off() we can:

- get rid of 'current->lockdep_recursion' in lockdep_assert_irqs*()
which was going to to give header-recursion issues with the
seqlock rework.

- allow these lockdep_assert_*() macros to function in NMI context.

Restore the previous state of things and allow an architecture to
opt-in to the NMI IRQ tracking support, however instead of relying on
lockdep_off(), rely on in_nmi(), both are part of nmi_enter() and so
over-all entry ordering doesn't need to change.

Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over

decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances.

This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines,
I also fixed the indentation.

There are a variety of indentation styles found.

a) 4 spaces + '---help---'
b) 7 spaces + '---help---'
c) 8 spaces + '---help---'
d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---'
e) 1 tab + '---help---' (correct indentation)
f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---'
g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'

In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the

x86/32: Remove CONFIG_DOUBLEFAULT

Make the doublefault exception handler unconditional on 32-bit. Yes,
it is important to be able to catch #DF exceptions instead of silent
reboots. Yes, the code size increase is worth every byte. And one less
CONFIG symbol is just the cherry on top.

No functional changes.

x86: mm: convert dump_pagetables to use walk_page_range

Make use of the new functionality in walk_page_range to remove the arch
page walking code and use the generic code to walk the page tables.

The effective permissions are passed down the chain using new fields in
struct pg_state.

The KASAN optimisation is implemented by setting action=CONTINUE in the
callbacks to skip an entire tree of entries.

x86/traps: Disentangle the 32-bit and 64-bit doublefault code

The 64-bit doublefault handler is much nicer than the 32-bit one.
As a first step toward unifying them, make the 64-bit handler
self-contained. This should have no effect no functional effect
except in the odd case of x86_64 with CONFIG_DOUBLEFAULT=n in which
case it will change the logging a bit.

This also gets rid of CONFIG_DOUBLEFAULT configurability on 64-bit
kernels. It didn't do anything useful -- CONFIG_DOUBLEFAULT=n
didn't actually disable doublefault handling on x86_64.

x86/stacktrace: update kconfig help text for reliable unwinders

commit 6415b38bae26 ("x86/stacktrace: Enable HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE
for the ORC unwinder") added the ORC unwinder as a "reliable" unwinder.
Update the help text to reflect that change: the frame pointer unwinder
is no longer the only one that can provide HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE.
