Small patch, fairly useful effect (IMHO): This introduces
ipipe_check_context(border_ipd), a test if the caller is running in
domain border_ipd or below. If not, a warning + stack trace is issued on
the kernel console.

The background is that functions of lower-priority domains that are not
protected against preemptions by higher domains must not be invoked by
the latter. Example: wakeup of a Linux process from a Xenomai interrupt
handler (fairly tempting for RTDM driver developers, I know).

As an application of this generic check, preempt_disable() and
might_resched() of the Linux kernel are instrumented with
ipipe_check_context(&ipipe_root). This catches all spin_lock invocations
as well as mutexes, (rw-)semaphores and other sleeping Linux services.

Example:

#include <linux/module.h>
#include <linux/wait.h>
#include <rtdm/rtdm_driver.h>

rtdm_task_t task;
static DECLARE_WAIT_QUEUE_HEAD(waitqueue);

void task_fnc(void *arg)
{
    rtdm_printk("about to do something illegal...\n");
    wake_up(&waitqueue);
    rtdm_printk("done\n");
}

int ipipe_debug_test(void)
{
    rtdm_task_init(&task, "ipipe_debug_test", task_fnc, NULL, 20, 0);

    rtdm_task_join_nrt(&task, 100);

    return -ENOANO;
}

module_init(ipipe_debug_test);


Loading this module will give

This patch is an RFC as the following issues need to be resolved:

 o The might be parts of I-pipe remaining that make use of
   preemp_disable even over non-root contexts. Philippe indicated the
   PPC PIC code would be one example.

 o We need a common header with only elementary dependencies to avoid
   duplications like in preempt.h and kernel.h. This would also address
   the problem of my earlier posted inline-root-stalling patch.

 o It has to be decided if this patch shall be part of the base patch or
   the tracer add-on (maybe renamed as ipipe-debugging).
