Subject: [PATCH v2 1/1] x86/fred: Fix init_task thread stack pointer initialization

As TOP_OF_KERNEL_STACK_PADDING is defined as 0 on x86_64, no one noticed
it's missing in the calculation of the .sp field in INIT_THREAD until it
is defined to 16 with CONFIG_X86_FRED=y.

Subtract TOP_OF_KERNEL_STACK_PADDING from the .sp field of INIT_THREAD.

Fixes: 65c9cc9e2c14 ("x86/fred: Reserve space for the FRED stack frame")
Fixes: 3adee777ad0d ("x86/smpboot: Remove initial_stack on 64-bit")
Reported-by: kernel test robot <oliver.sang@...el.com>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-lkp/202402262159.183c2a37-lkp@intel.com

Change Since v1:
* Apply offset TOP_OF_KERNEL_STACK_PADDING to all uses of __end_init_task
  (Brian Gerst).
