[PATCH v16 08/42] x86_64, dept: add support CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_DEPT_SUPPORT to x86_64

From: Byungchul Park <byungchul@sk.com>
Date: 2025-05-19 09:18:44
Also in: dri-devel, linux-block, linux-ext4, linux-fsdevel, linux-ide, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit), x86 entry code, x86 mm · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen, Andy Lutomirski, Peter Zijlstra

dept needs to notice every entrance from user to kernel mode to treat
every kernel context independently when tracking wait-event dependencies.
Roughly, system call and user oriented fault are the cases.

Make dept aware of the entrances of x86_64 and add support
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_DEPT_SUPPORT to x86_64.
