Steven Rostedt 5e32d0f15c unwind_user/deferred: Add unwind_user_faultable()
Add a new API to retrieve a user space callstack called
unwind_user_faultable(). The difference between this user space stack
tracer from the current user space stack tracer is that this must be
called from faultable context as it may use routines to access user space
data that needs to be faulted in.

It can be safely called from entering or exiting a system call as the code
can still be faulted in there.

This code is based on work by Josh Poimboeuf's deferred unwinding code:

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
