[RFC 0/3] Baby steps toward cleaning up KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET

[Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net>]

Denys is right that KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET is a mess.  Let's start fixing
it.

This removes all C code that *reads* kernel_stack.  It also fixes the
KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET abomination in ia32_sysenter_target.

It does not fix the KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET abomination in GET_THREAD_INFO
and THREAD_INFO.  I think that should be its own patch.

It also doesn't change the two syscall targets.  To fix them, we should
make a decision.  Either we should make KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET have the
correct nonzero value to save an instruction or we should get rid of
kernel_stack entirely.

Andy Lutomirski (3):
  x86: Add this_cpu_sp0() to read sp0 for the current cpu
  x86: Switch all C consumers of kernel_stack to this_cpu_sp0
  x86, asm: Change the 32-bit sysenter code to use sp0
