Pull per signal_struct coredumps from Eric Biederman: "Current coredumps are mixed up with the exit code, the signal handling code, and the ptrace code making coredumps much more complicated than necessary and difficult to follow.
This series of changes starts with ptrace_stop and cleans it up, making it easier to follow what is happening in ptrace_stop. Then cleans up the exec interactions with coredumps. Then cleans up the coredump interactions with exit. Finally the coredump interactions with the signal handling code is cleaned up.
The first and last changes are bug fixes for minor bugs.
I believe the fact that vfork followed by execve can kill the process the called vfork if exec fails is sufficient justification to change the userspace visible behavior.
In previous discussions some of these changes were organized differently and individually appeared to make the code base worse. As currently written I believe they all stand on their own as cleanups and bug fixes.
Which means that even if the worst should happen and the last change needs to be reverted for some unimaginable reason, the code base will still be improved.
If the worst does not happen there are a more cleanups that can be made. Signals that generate coredumps can easily become eligible for short circuit delivery in complete_signal. The entire rendezvous for generating a coredump can move into get_signal. The function force_sig_info_to_task be written in a way that does not modify the signal handling state of the target task (because coredumps are eligible for short circuit delivery). Many of these future cleanups can be done another way but nothing so cleanly as if coredumps become per signal_struct"

Pull scheduler updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Revert the printk format based wchan() symbol resolution as it can leak the raw value in case that the symbol is not resolvable.
- Make wchan() more robust and work with all kind of unwinders by enforcing that the task stays blocked while unwinding is in progress.
- Prevent sched_fork() from accessing an invalid sched_task_group
- Improve asymmetric packing logic
- Extend scheduler statistics to RT and DL scheduling classes and add statistics for bandwith burst to the SCHED_FAIR class.
- Properly account SCHED_IDLE entities
- Prevent a potential deadlock when initial priority is assigned to a newly created kthread. A recent change to plug a race between cpuset and __sched_setscheduler() introduced a new lock dependency which is now triggered. Break the lock dependency chain by moving the priority assignment to the thread function.
- Fix the idle time reporting in /proc/uptime for NOHZ enabled systems.
- Improve idle balancing in general and especially for NOHZ enabled systems.
- Provide proper interfaces for live patching so it does not have to fiddle with scheduler internals.
- Add cluster aware scheduling support.
- A small set of tweaks for RT (irqwork, wait_task_inactive(), various scheduler options and delaying mmdrop)
- The usual small tweaks and improvements all over the place

proc: Use task_is_running() for wchan in /proc/$pid/stat
The implementations of get_wchan() can be expensive. The only information imparted here is whether or not a process is currently blocked in the scheduler (and even this doesn't need to be exact). Avoid doing the heavy lifting of stack walking and just report that information by using task_is_running().

Which means that if for some reason the last change needs to be reverted we can still keep the gains from the other changes.

coredump: Limit coredumps to a single thread group
Today when a signal is delivered with a handler of SIG_DFL whose default behavior is to generate a core dump not only that process but every process that shares the mm is killed.
In the case of vfork this looks like a real world problem. Consider the following well defined sequence.
if (vfork() == 0) { execve(...); _exit(EXIT_FAILURE); }
If a signal that generates a core dump is received after vfork but before the execve changes the mm the process that called vfork will also be killed (as the mm is shared).
Similarly if the execve fails after the point of no return the kernel delivers SIGSEGV which will kill both the exec'ing process and because the mm is shared the process that called vfork as well.
As far as I can tell this behavior is a violation of people's reasonable expectations, POSIX, and is unnecessarily fragile when the system is low on memory.
Solve this by making a userspace visible change to only kill a single process/thread group. This is possible because Jann Horn recently modified[1] the coredump code so that the mm can safely be modified while the coredump is happening. With LinuxThreads long gone I don't expect anyone to have a notice this behavior change in practice.
To accomplish this move the core_state pointer from mm_struct to signal_struct, which allows different thread groups to coredump simultatenously.
In zap_threads remove the work to kill anything except for the current thread group.
v2: Remove core_state from the VM_BUG_ON_MM print to fix compile failure when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled. Reported-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au>
