I noticed a little bug in fast compat syscalls.  I got a bit carried away
fixing it.  This renames the irqentry stuff to kentry, improves (IMNSHO)
the API, and adds lots of debugging.

It also tweaks the unwinder wrt ret_from_fork and rewrites ret_from_fork
in C.  I did this because the kentry work involved a small change to
ret_from_fork, and adjusting the asm is a mess.  So C it is.

Changes from v3: Get rid of arm64 special cases

Changes from v1 and v2: Complete rewrite

Andy Lutomirski (9):
  x86/dumpstack: Remove unnecessary range check fetching opcode bytes
  x86/kthread,dumpstack: Set task_pt_regs->cs.RPL=3 for kernel threads
  x86/entry: Convert ret_from_fork to C
  kentry: Simplify the common syscall API
  kentry: Remove enter_from/exit_to_user_mode()
  entry: Make CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY available outside x86
  kentry: Add debugging checks for proper kentry API usage
  kentry: Check that syscall entries and syscall exits match
  kentry: Verify kentry state in instrumentation_begin/end()
