f7e9077a16 um: Stop tracking stub's PID via userspace_pid[]
The PID of the stub process can be obtained from current_mm_id().
There is no need to track it via userspace_pid[]. Stop doing that
to simplify the code.

8420e08fe3 um: Track userspace children dying in SECCOMP mode
When in seccomp mode, we would hang forever on the futex if a child has
died unexpectedly. In contrast, ptrace mode will notice it and kill the
corresponding thread when it fails to run it.

Fix this issue using a new IRQ that is fired after a SIGCHLD and keeping
an (internal) list of all MMs. In the IRQ handler, find the affected MM
and set its PID to -1 as well as the futex variable to FUTEX_IN_KERN.

This, together with futex returning -EINTR after the signal is
sufficient to implement a race-free detection of a child dying.

Note that this also enables IRQ handling while starting a userspace
process. This should be safe and SECCOMP requires the IRQ in case the
process does not come up properly.

2df8c8d118 um: Remove obsoleted declaration for execute_syscall_skas
The execute_syscall_skas() have been removed since
commit e32dacb9f4 ("[PATCH] uml: system call path cleanup"),
and now it is useless, so remove it.

bcf3d957c6 um: refactor TLB update handling
Conceptually, we want the memory mappings to always be up to date and
represent whatever is in the TLB. To ensure that, we need to sync them
over in the userspace case and for the kernel we need to process the
mappings.

The kernel will call flush_tlb_* if page table entries that were valid
before become invalid. Unfortunately, this is not the case if entries
are added.

As such, change both flush_tlb_* and set_ptes to track the memory range
that has to be synchronized. For the kernel, we need to execute a
flush_tlb_kern_* immediately but we can wait for the first page fault in
case of set_ptes. For userspace in contrast we only store that a range
of memory needs to be synced and do so whenever we switch to that
process.

3c83170d7c um: Delay flushing syscalls until the thread is restarted
As running the syscalls is expensive due to context switches, we should
do so as late as possible in case more syscalls need to be queued later
on. This will also benefit a later move to a SECCOMP enabled userspace
as in that case the need for extra context switches is removed entirely.

d0b5e15f0c um: Remove SKAS3/4 support
Before we had SKAS0 UML had two modes of operation
TT (tracing thread) and SKAS3/4 (separated kernel address space).
TT was known to be insecure and got removed a long time ago.
SKAS3/4 required a few (3 or 4) patches on the host side which never went
mainline. The last host patch is 10 years old.

With SKAS0 mode (separated kernel address space using 0 host patches),
default since 2005, SKAS3/4 is obsolete and can be removed.
