The setup_profiling_timer() is mostly un-implemented by many
architectures.  In many places it isn't guarded by CONFIG_PROFILE which is
needed for it to be used.  Make it a weak symbol in kernel/profile.c and
remove the 'return -EINVAL' implementations from the kenrel.

There are a couple of architectures which do return 0 from the
setup_profiling_timer() function but they don't seem to do anything else
with it.  To keep the /proc compatibility for now, leave these for a
future update or removal.

On ARM, this fixes the following sparse warning:
arch/arm/kernel/smp.c:793:5: warning: symbol 'setup_profiling_timer' was not declared. Should it be static?

On kprobe registration kernel allocate one insn_slot for new kprobe,
but it forget to reclaim the insn_slot on unregistration, leading to a
potential leakage.

Context tracking is going to be used not only to track user transitions
but also idle/IRQs/NMIs. The user tracking part will then become a
separate feature. Prepare Kconfig for that.

context_tracking_user_enter() and context_tracking_user_exit() are
ASM callable versions of user_enter() and user_exit() for architectures
that didn't manage to check the context tracking static key from ASM.
Change those function names to better reflect their purpose.

Pull kthread updates from Eric Biederman:
 "This updates init and user mode helper tasks to be ordinary user mode
  tasks.

  Commit 40966e316f86 ("kthread: Ensure struct kthread is present for
  all kthreads") caused init and the user mode helper threads that call
  kernel_execve to have struct kthread allocated for them. This struct
  kthread going away during execve in turned made a use after free of
  struct kthread possible.

  Here, commit 343f4c49f243 ("kthread: Don't allocate kthread_struct for
  init and umh") is enough to fix the use after free and is simple
  enough to be backportable.

  The rest of the changes pass struct kernel_clone_args to clean things
  up and cause the code to make sense.

  In making init and the user mode helpers tasks purely user mode tasks
  I ran into two complications. The function task_tick_numa was
  detecting tasks without an mm by testing for the presence of
  PF_KTHREAD. The initramfs code in populate_initrd_image was using
  flush_delayed_fput to ensuere the closing of all it's file descriptors
  was complete, and flush_delayed_fput does not work in a userspace
  thread.

  I have looked and looked and more complications and in my code review
  I have not found any, and neither has anyone else with the code
  sitting in linux-next"

Pull kthread updates from Eric Biederman:
 "This updates init and user mode helper tasks to be ordinary user mode
  tasks.

  Commit 40966e316f86 ("kthread: Ensure struct kthread is present for
  all kthreads") caused init and the user mode helper threads that call
  kernel_execve to have struct kthread allocated for them. This struct
  kthread going away during execve in turned made a use after free of
  struct kthread possible.

  Here, commit 343f4c49f243 ("kthread: Don't allocate kthread_struct for
  init and umh") is enough to fix the use after free and is simple
  enough to be backportable.

  The rest of the changes pass struct kernel_clone_args to clean things
  up and cause the code to make sense.

  In making init and the user mode helpers tasks purely user mode tasks
  I ran into two complications. The function task_tick_numa was
  detecting tasks without an mm by testing for the presence of
  PF_KTHREAD. The initramfs code in populate_initrd_image was using
  flush_delayed_fput to ensuere the closing of all it's file descriptors
  was complete, and flush_delayed_fput does not work in a userspace
  thread.

  I have looked and looked and more complications and in my code review
  I have not found any, and neither has anyone else with the code
  sitting in linux-next"
