ARM: smp: Enable THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK (2021-09-27 16:54:02 +0200)
----------------------------------------------------------------
ARM: support THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK
Move thread_info off the stack and into the task struct, as is done by
many other architectures. This requires a method to find the task struct
of the task currently running on the CPU, which is provided in this case
by the user space TLS (Thread Local Storage) register. This implies that
the feature is only supported on CPUs that implement this register,
i.e., ARM v6k or later.
Kindly tested by Amit and reviewed by Linus. The first patch is against
the GCC plugins subsystem, but was reviewed by the maintainer and can be
taken through the ARM tree.
