Vasily Gorbik 7bcaad1f9f s390: avoid misusing CALL_ON_STACK for task stack setup
CALL_ON_STACK is intended to be used for temporary stack switching with
potential return to the caller.

When CALL_ON_STACK is misused to switch from nodat stack to task stack
back_chain information would later lead stack unwinder from task stack into
(per cpu) nodat stack which is reused for other purposes. This would
yield confusing unwinding result or errors.

To avoid that introduce CALL_ON_STACK_NORETURN to be used instead. It
makes sure that back_chain is zeroed and unwinder finishes gracefully
ending up at task pt_regs.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
