x86's is_compat_task always checked the current syscall type, not the
task type.  It has no non-arch users any more, so just remove it to
avoid confusion.

On x86, nothing should really be checking the task ABI.  There are
legitimate users for the syscall ABI and for the mm ABI.

<content type='text'>
On Xen PV, regs-&gt;flags doesn't reliably reflect IOPL and the
exit-to-userspace code doesn't change IOPL.  We need to context
switch it manually.

I'm doing this without going through paravirt because this is
specific to Xen PV.  After the dust settles, we can merge this with
the 32-bit code, tidy up the iopl syscall implementation, and remove
the set_iopl pvop entirely.

Fixes XSA-171.

Protection Keys never affect kernel mappings.  But, they can
affect whether the kernel will fault when it touches a user
mapping.  The kernel doesn't touch user mappings without some
careful choreography and these accesses don't generally result in
oopses.  But, if one does, we definitely want to have PKRU
available so we can figure out if protection keys played a role.

Dmitry Vyukov reported the following using trinity and the memory
error detector AddressSanitizer
(https://code.google.com/p/address-sanitizer/wiki/AddressSanitizerForKernel).

[ 124.575597] ERROR: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow on
address ffff88002e280000
[ 124.576801] ffff88002e280000 is located 131938492886538 bytes to

./arch/x86/kernel/process_64.c:444

The address checks in the 64bit implementation of get_wchan() are
wrong in several ways:

 - The lower bound of the stack is not the start of the stack
   page. It's the start of the stack page plus sizeof (struct
   thread_info)

 - The upper bound must be:

       top_of_stack - TOP_OF_KERNEL_STACK_PADDING - 2 * sizeof(unsigned long).

   The 2 * sizeof(unsigned long) is required because the stack pointer
   points at the frame pointer. The layout on the stack is: ... IP FP
   ... IP FP. So we need to make sure that both IP and FP are in the
   bounds.

Fix the bound checks and get rid of the mix of numeric constants, u64
and unsigned long. Making all unsigned long allows us to use the same
function for 32bit as well.

Use READ_ONCE() when accessing the stack. This does not prevent a
concurrent wakeup of the task and the stack changing, but at least it
avoids TOCTOU.

Also check task state at the end of the loop. Again that does not
prevent concurrent changes, but it avoids walking for nothing.

Add proper comments while at it.
