Linus Torvalds 2c6a392cdd Merge branch 'core-stacktrace-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull stack trace updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "So Thomas looked at the stacktrace code recently and noticed a few
  weirdnesses, and we all know how such stories of crummy kernel code
  meeting German engineering perfection end: a 45-patch series to clean
  it all up! :-)

  Here's the changes in Thomas's words:

   'Struct stack_trace is a sinkhole for input and output parameters
    which is largely pointless for most usage sites. In fact if embedded
    into other data structures it creates indirections and extra storage
    overhead for no benefit.

    Looking at all usage sites makes it clear that they just require an
    interface which is based on a storage array. That array is either on
    stack, global or embedded into some other data structure.

    Some of the stack depot usage sites are outright wrong, but
    fortunately the wrongness just causes more stack being used for
    nothing and does not have functional impact.

    Another oddity is the inconsistent termination of the stack trace
    with ULONG_MAX. It's pointless as the number of entries is what
    determines the length of the stored trace. In fact quite some call
    sites remove the ULONG_MAX marker afterwards with or without nasty
    comments about it. Not all architectures do that and those which do,
    do it inconsistenly either conditional on nr_entries == 0 or
    unconditionally.

    The following series cleans that up by:

      1) Removing the ULONG_MAX termination in the architecture code

      2) Removing the ULONG_MAX fixups at the call sites

      3) Providing plain storage array based interfaces for stacktrace
         and stackdepot.

      4) Cleaning up the mess at the callsites including some related
         cleanups.

      5) Removing the struct stack_trace based interfaces

    This is not changing the struct stack_trace interfaces at the
    architecture level, but it removes the exposure to the generic
    code'"
