 - Its address is harder to determine if stack addresses are
 leaked, making a number of attacks more difficult.
-
-Changes since v5:
- - Fixed livepatch_sp setup by using end_of_stack() instead of hardcoding
- - Fixed PPC_BPF_LOAD_CPU() macro
-
-Changes since v4:
- - Fixed a build failure on 32bits SMP when include/generated/asm-offsets.h is not
- already existing, was due to spaces instead of a tab in the Makefile
-
-Changes since RFC v3: (based on Nick's review)
- - Renamed task_size.h to task_size_user64.h to better relate to what it contains.
- - Handling of the isolation of thread_info cpu field inside CONFIG_SMP #ifdefs moved to a separate patch.
- - Removed CURRENT_THREAD_INFO macro completely.
- - Added a guard in asm/smp.h to avoid build failure before _TASK_CPU is defined.
- - Added a patch at the end to rename 'tp' pointers to 'sp' pointers
- - Renamed 'tp' into 'sp' pointers in preparation patch when relevant
- - Fixed a few commit logs
- - Fixed checkpatch report.

  - Modified asm/smp.h to avoid having to include linux/sched.h (using asm-offsets instead)
  - Moved some changes from the activation patch to the preparation patch.

   book3s/64: avoid circular header inclusion in mmu-hash.h
-  powerpc: Only use task_struct 'cpu' field on SMP
   powerpc: Prepare for moving thread_info into task_struct
   powerpc: Activate CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK
   powerpc: regain entire stack space
   powerpc: 'current_set' is now a table of task_struct pointers
