Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 for 4.15 21/24] x86: Introduce sync_core_before_usermode
Introduce an architecture function that ensures the current CPU
issues a core serializing instruction before returning to usermode.
This is needed for the membarrier "sync_core" command.
Architectures defining the sync_core_before_usermode() static inline
need to select ARCH_HAS_SYNC_CORE_BEFORE_USERMODE.

Changes since v1:
- Fix prototype of sync_core_before_usermode in generic code (missing
return type).
- Add linux/processor.h include to sched/core.c.
- Add ARCH_HAS_SYNC_CORE_BEFORE_USERMODE to init/Kconfig.
- Fix linux/processor.h ifdef to target
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYNC_CORE_BEFORE_USERMODE rather than
ARCH_HAS_SYNC_CORE_BEFORE_USERMODE.
