Subject: [PATCH 4.14 053/159] x86/entry/64: Remove thread_struct::sp0

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@...nel.org>

commit d375cf1530595e33961a8844192cddab913650e3 upstream.

On x86_64, we can easily calculate sp0 when needed instead of
storing it in thread_struct.

On x86_32, a similar cleanup would be possible, but it would require
cleaning up the vm86 code first, and that can wait for a later
cleanup series.
