sched: Mark __schedule() stack frame as non-standard
objtool reports the following warnings for __schedule(): kernel/sched/core.o: warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3c0: duplicate frame pointer save kernel/sched/core.o: warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3fd: sibling call from callable instruction with changed frame pointer kernel/sched/core.o: warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x40a: call without frame pointer save/setup kernel/sched/core.o: warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x7fd: frame pointer state mismatch kernel/sched/core.o: warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x421: frame pointer state mismatch Basically it's confused by two unusual attributes of the switch_to() macro: 1. It saves prev's frame pointer to the old stack and restores next's frame pointer from the new stack. 2. For new tasks it jumps directly to ret_from_fork. Eventually it would probably be a good idea to clean up the ret_from_fork hack so that new tasks are created with a valid initial stack, as suggested by Andy: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/CALCETrWsqCw4L1qKO9j9L5F+4ED4viuLQTFc=n1pKBZfFPQUFg@mail.gmail.com Then __schedule() could return normally into the new code and objtool hopefully wouldn't have a problem anymore. In the meantime, mark its stack frame as non-standard so we can have a baseline with no objtool warnings. The marker also serves as a reminder that this code could be improved a bit.
