It is not necessary to check if a fault has occured or not
after disabling pagefaults. kmap_atomic does that in all
cases and we can disable it for 64 bit where kmap is not needed
and a simple page_address would suffice.

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1M count=1M
Before: 3.1GB/s. After: 3.5GB/s

There is a noticeable difference for file disk read and write
as well as less noticeable difference for network IO.

We are going to split &lt;linux/sched/task_stack.h&gt; out of &lt;linux/sched.h&gt;, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder &lt;linux/sched/task_stack.h&gt; file that just
maps to &lt;linux/sched.h&gt; to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

<title>um/ptrace: Fix the syscall number update after a ptrace</title>

<content type='text'>
Update the syscall number after each PTRACE_SETREGS on ORIG_*AX.

This is needed to get the potentially altered syscall number in the
seccomp filters after RET_TRACE.

This fix four seccomp_bpf tests:
&gt; [ RUN      ] TRACE_syscall.skip_after_RET_TRACE
&gt; seccomp_bpf.c:1560:TRACE_syscall.skip_after_RET_TRACE:Expected -1 (18446744073709551615) == syscall(39) (26)
&gt; seccomp_bpf.c:1561:TRACE_syscall.skip_after_RET_TRACE:Expected 1 (1) == (*__errno_location ()) (22)
&gt; [     FAIL ] TRACE_syscall.skip_after_RET_TRACE
&gt; [ RUN      ] TRACE_syscall.kill_after_RET_TRACE
&gt; TRACE_syscall.kill_after_RET_TRACE: Test exited normally instead of by signal (code: 1)
&gt; [     FAIL ] TRACE_syscall.kill_after_RET_TRACE
&gt; [ RUN      ] TRACE_syscall.skip_after_ptrace
&gt; seccomp_bpf.c:1622:TRACE_syscall.skip_after_ptrace:Expected -1 (18446744073709551615) == syscall(39) (26)
