ARC: __switch_to: move ksp to thread_info from thread_struct

task's arch specific bits are carried in 2 places
- embedded thread_struct in task_struct
- associated thread_info (hoisted in task's stack page) and
syntactically: (thread_info *)(task_struct->stack)

ksp (dynamic kernel stack top) currently lives in thread_struct but
given its deep location in task struct likely to cache miss when
accessed from __switch_to(). Moving it to thread_info would be more
efficient given proximity to frequently accessed items such as
preempt_count thus very likely to be in cache, specially in schedular
code.

Note however that currently tsk.thread.ksp takes 1 memory access (off
of tsk pointer) while new code tsk->stack.ksp would take 2, but likely
to be in cache. Moreover if task is current the 2nd reference can be
elided and instead derived from SP as (SP & ~(THREAD_SIZE - 1))

All of this also makes __switch_to() code simpler and we can see the 2
ways of retirving ksp (descrobed above) in new code.

uaccess: remove CONFIG_SET_FS

There are no remaining callers of set_fs(), so CONFIG_SET_FS
can be removed globally, along with the thread_info field and
any references to it.

This turns access_ok() into a cheaper check against TASK_SIZE_MAX.

As CONFIG_SET_FS is now gone, drop all remaining references to
set_fs()/get_fs(), mm_segment_t, user_addr_max() and uaccess_kernel().

Construct init thread stack in the linker script rather than by union

Construct the init thread stack in the linker script rather than doing it
by means of a union so that ia64's init_task.c can be got rid of.

The following symbols are then made available from INIT_TASK_DATA() linker
script macro:

init_thread_union
init_stack

INIT_TASK_DATA() also expands the region to THREAD_SIZE to accommodate the
size of the init stack. init_thread_union is given its own section so that
it can be placed into the stack space in the right order. I'm assuming
that the ia64 ordering is correct and that the task_struct is first and the
thread_info second.

all arches, signal: move restart_block to struct task_struct

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.

Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.

Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.

It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.
