cbb870c822 [S390] Cleanup struct _lowcore usage and defines.
Use asm offsets to make sure the offset defines to struct _lowcore and
its layout don't get out of sync.
Also add a BUILD_BUG_ON() which checks that the size of the structure
is sane.
And while being at it change those sites which use odd casts to access
the current lowcore. These should use S390_lowcore instead.

e7b8e675d9 tracing: Unify arch_syscall_addr() implementations
Most implementations of arch_syscall_addr() are the same, so create a
default version in common code and move the one piece that differs (the
syscall table) to asm/syscall.h.  New arch ports don't have to waste
time copying & pasting this simple function.

The s390/sparc versions need to be different, so document why.

c44fc77084 tracing: Move syscalls metadata handling from arch to core
Most of the syscalls metadata processing is done from arch.
But these operations are mostly generic accross archs. Especially now
that we have a common variable name that expresses the number of
syscalls supported by an arch: NR_syscalls, the only remaining bits
that need to reside in arch is the syscall nr to addr translation.

v2: Compare syscalls symbols only after the "sys" prefix so that we
    avoid spurious mismatches with archs that have syscalls wrappers,
    in which case syscalls symbols have "SyS" prefixed aliases.

22ceaf408f [S390] ftrace: drop nmi protection
The function graph tracer used to have a protection against NMI
while entering a function entry tracing. But this is useless now,
the tracer is reentrant and the ring buffer supports NMI tracing.

Same as 07868b086c for x86.

7515bf59f8 tracing: Add syscall tracepoints - s390 arch update
This patch includes s390 arch updates to synchronize with latest
core changes in the syscalls tracing area.

- tracing: Map syscall name to number (syscall_name_to_nr())
- tracing: Call arch_init_ftrace_syscalls at boot
- tracing: add support tracepoint ids (set_syscall_{enter,exit}_id())

71e308a239 function-graph: add stack frame test
In case gcc does something funny with the stack frames, or the return
from function code, we would like to detect that.

An arch may implement passing of a variable that is unique to the
function and can be saved on entering a function and can be tested
when exiting the function. Usually the frame pointer can be used for
this purpose.

This patch also implements this for x86. Where it passes in the stack
frame of the parent function, and will test that frame on exit.

There was a case in x86_32 with optimize for size (-Os) where, for a
few functions, gcc would align the stack frame and place a copy of the
return address into it. The function graph tracer modified the copy and
not the actual return address. On return from the funtion, it did not go
to the tracer hook, but returned to the parent. This broke the function
graph tracer, because the return of the parent (where gcc did not do
this funky manipulation) returned to the location that the child function
was suppose to. This caused strange kernel crashes.

This test detected the problem and pointed out where the issue was.

This modifies the parameters of one of the functions that the arch
specific code calls, so it includes changes to arch code to accommodate
the new prototype.

Note, I notice that the parsic arch implements its own push_return_trace.
This is now a generic function and the ftrace_push_return_trace should be
used instead. This patch does not touch that code.
