[PATCH v3 0/8] x86: entry_64.S: always allocate complete "struct pt_regs"

[Denys Vlasenko]

Version 3 of the patchset.

Please consider applying at least two first patches, they are definitely safe,
and the second one fixes a latent bug.

Changes since v2:
= fixed pre-existing latent bug: wrong symbolic constant usage: R11->ARGOFFSET
= per Oleg's request, added comments about various syscall instructions

Changes since v1 (mainly in patch 4/6):
= Reverted changes to "partial pt_regs saving" on interrupt path.
= Folded PARTIAL_FRAME macro into DEFAULT_FRAME. Patch v1
  had a bug (incorrect dwarf debug info generation).
= Corrected more comments.
= Added use of SAVE_* macros to error_entry and save_paranoid.
= Added another cleanup rename patch.

TODO:
= error_entry and save_paranoid have different CFI decorations.
  At least one of them is likely to be wrong...
= Move save_paranoid and ret_from_fork closer to their callers.
= "idtentry" macro uses a subroutine to factor out a largish
  common code block. "interrupt" macro inlines a similar
  block every time (~20 instances). Maybe factor it out?
