This mostly reverts the old commit 3963333fe6 ("uml: cover stubs
with a VMA") which had added a VMA to the existing PTEs. However,
there's no real reason to have the PTEs in the first place and the
VMA cannot be 'fixed' in place, which leads to bugs that userspace
could try to unmap them and be forcefully killed, or such. Also,
there's a bit of an ugly hole in userspace's address space.
Simplify all this: just install the stub code/page at the top of
the (inner) address space, i.e. put it just above TASK_SIZE. The
pages are simply hard-coded to be mapped in the userspace process
we use to implement an mm context, and they're out of reach of the
inner mmap/munmap/mprotect etc. since they're above TASK_SIZE.
Getting rid of the VMA also makes vma_merge() no longer hit one of
the VM_WARN_ON()s there because we installed a VMA while the code
assumes the stack VMA is the first one.
It also removes a lockdep warning about mmap_sem usage since we no
longer have uml_setup_stubs() and thus no longer need to do any
manipulation that would require mmap_sem in activate_mm().

The userspace stacks mostly have a stack (and in the case of the
syscall stub we can just set their stack pointer) that points to
the location of the stub data page already.
Rework the stubs to use the stack pointer to derive the start of
the data page, rather than requiring it to be hard-coded.
In the clone stub, also integrate the int3 into the stack remap,
since we really must not use the stack while we remap it.
This prepares for putting the stub at a variable location that's
not part of the normal address space of the userspace processes
running inside the UML machine.

atomic_notifier_chain_register() and uml_postsetup() do call kernel code
that rely on the "current" kernel macro and a valid task_struct resp.
thread_info struct. Give those functions a valid stack by moving
uml_postsetup() in the init_thread stack. This moves enables a panic()
call in this early code to generate a valid stacktrace, instead of
crashing.
E.g. when an UML kernel is started with an initrd but too few physical
memory the panic() call get's actually processed.

_end is used, but it's already provided by <asm/sections.h>, so use that.

UML guest processes now get correct siginfo_t for SIGTRAP, SIGFPE,
SIGILL and SIGBUS. Specifically, si_addr and si_code are now correct
where previously they were si_addr = NULL and si_code = 128.

We can't just plop asm/* into it - userland helpers are built with it
in search path and seeing asm/* show up there suddenly would be a bad
idea.
