[PATCH 6/10] add stack field to task_struct

From: Roman Zippel
Date: Thu Sep 01 2005 - 17:01:21 EST



This adds a new field stack to task_struct. Its value is identical to thread_info,
but on m68k it doesn't point to the thread_info. This allows to convert direct accesses
to the thread_info field to either convert to using the stack field, end_of_stack()
or task_thread_info().
