Subject: [RFC PATCH 8/8] arm64: split thread_info from task stack
This patch moves arm64's struct thread_info from the task stack into
task_struct. This protects thread_info from corruption in the case of
stack overflows, and makes its address harder to determine if stack
addresses are leaked, making a number of attacks more difficult. Precise
detection and handling of overflow is left for subsequent patches.
Largely, this involves changing code to store the task_struct in sp_el0,
and acquire the thread_info from the task struct (which is the opposite
way around to the current code). Both secondary entry and idle are
updated to stash the sp and task pointer separately.
Userspace clobbers sp_el0, and we can no longer restore this from the
stack. Instead, the current task is cached in a per-cpu variable that we
can safely access from early assembly as interrupts are disabled (and we
are thus not preemptible).
There remain opportunities for improvement. Currently we cannot remove
thread_info::cpu and always use task_struct::cpu, as this would result
in a circular include dependency for raw_smp_processor_id():
<asm/smp.h> -> <linux/sched.h> -> <linux/smp.h> -> <asm/smp.h>
