Andy Lutomirski f9281648ec context_tracking: Add ct_state() and CT_WARN_ON()
This will let us sprinkle sanity checks around the kernel
without making too much of a mess.

Frederic Weisbecker aed5ed4772 context_tracking: Protect against recursion
Context tracking recursion can happen when an exception triggers
in the middle of a call to a context tracking probe.

This special case can be caused by vmalloc faults. If an access
to a memory area allocated by vmalloc happens in the middle of
context_tracking_enter(), we may run into an endless fault loop
because the exception in turn calls context_tracking_enter()
which faults on the same vmalloc'ed memory, triggering an
exception again, etc...

Some rare crashes have been reported so lets protect against
this with a recursion counter.

Rik van Riel 126a6a5424 kvm,rcu,nohz: use RCU extended quiescent state when running KVM guest
The host kernel is not doing anything while the CPU is executing
a KVM guest VCPU, so it can be marked as being in an extended
quiescent state, identical to that used when running user space
code.

The only exception to that rule is when the host handles an
interrupt, which is already handled by the irq code, which
calls rcu_irq_enter and rcu_irq_exit.

The guest_enter and guest_exit functions already switch vtime
accounting independent of context tracking. Leave those calls
where they are, instead of moving them into the context tracking
code.

Rik van Riel a3a9c7dff2 context_tracking: Add stub context_tracking_is_enabled
With code elsewhere doing something conditional on whether or not
context tracking is enabled, we want a stub function that tells us
context tracking is not enabled, when CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACKING is
not set.

Frederic Weisbecker c467ea763f context_tracking: Rename context symbols to prepare for transition state
Current context tracking symbols are designed to express living state.
As such they are prefixed with "IN_": IN_USER, IN_KERNEL.

Now we are going to use these symbols to also express state transitions
such as context_tracking_enter(IN_USER) or context_tracking_exit(IN_USER).
But while the "IN_" prefix works well to express entering a context, it's
confusing to depict a context exit: context_tracking_exit(IN_USER)
could mean two things:
	1) We are exiting the current context to enter user context.
	2) We are exiting the user context
We want 2) but the reviewer may be confused and understand 1)

So lets disambiguate these symbols and rename them to CONTEXT_USER and
CONTEXT_KERNEL.

Frederic Weisbecker d0df09ebfc context_tracking: Rename context_tracking_active() to context_tracking_cpu_is_enabled()
We currently have a confusing couple of API naming with the existing
context_tracking_active() and context_tracking_is_enabled().

Lets keep the latter one, context_tracking_is_enabled(), for global
context tracking state check and use context_tracking_cpu_is_enabled()
for local state check.

tracking state. static_key_false() is a bit confusing for reviewers.

Frederic Weisbecker e7358b3bc0 context_tracking: Split low level state headers
We plan to use the context tracking static key on inline
vtime APIs. For this we need to include the context tracking
headers from those of vtime.

However vtime headers need to stay low level because they are
included in hardirq.h that mostly contains standalone
definitions. But context_tracking.h includes sched.h for
a few task_struct references, therefore it wouldn't be sensible
to include it from vtime.h

To solve this, lets split the context tracking headers and move
out the pure state definitions that only require a few low level
headers. We can safely include that small part in vtime.h later.
