This is needed if the header is to be free-standing.

This will help kmemcheck (and possibly other debugging tools) since we
can now simply pass regs->bp to the stack tracer instead of specifying
the number of stack frames to skip, which is unreliable if gcc decides
to inline functions, etc.
Note that this makes the API incomplete for other architectures, but I
expect that those can be updated lazily, e.g. when they need it.

Impact: cleanup
User stack tracing is just implemented for x86, but it is not x86 specific.
Introduce a generic config flag, that is currently enabled only for x86.
When other arches implement it, they will have to
SELECT USER_STACKTRACE_SUPPORT.

Impact: add new (default-off) tracing visualization feature
Usage example:
mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug
cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
echo userstacktrace >iter_ctrl
echo sched_switch >current_tracer
echo 1 >tracing_enabled
.... run application ...
echo 0 >tracing_enabled
Then read one of 'trace','latency_trace','trace_pipe'.
To get the best output you can compile your userspace programs with
frame pointers (at least glibc + the app you are tracing).

include/linux/stacktrace.h:13: warning:

LatencyTOP kernel infrastructure; it measures latencies in the
scheduler and tracks it system wide and per process.

The print_stack_trace macro in stacktrace.h has a wrong number of
arguments, fix it.

Simplify the stacktrace code:
- remove the unused task argument to save_stack_trace, it's always
current
- remove the all_contexts flag, it's alwasy 0

- Remove unused all_contexts parameter
No caller used it
- Move skip argument into the structure (needed for
followon patches)
