Pull initial deferred unwind infrastructure from Steven Rostedt:
 "This is the core infrastructure for the deferred unwinder that is
  required for sframes[1]. Several other patch series are based on this
  work although those patch series are not dependent on each other. In
  order to simplify the development, having this core series upstream
  will allow the other series to be worked on in parallel. The other
  series are:

    - The two patches to implement x86 support [2] [3]

    - The s390 work [4]

    - The perf work [5]

    - The ftrace work [6]

    - The sframe work [7]

  And more is on the way.

  The core infrastructure adds the following in kernel APIs:

    - int unwind_user_faultable(struct unwind_stacktrace *trace);

        Performs a user space stack trace that may fault user pages in.

    - int unwind_deferred_init(struct unwind_work *work, unwind_callback_t func);

        Allows a tracer to register with the unwind deferred
        infrastructure.

    - int unwind_deferred_request(struct unwind_work *work, u64 *cookie);

        Used when a tracer request a deferred trace. Can be called from
        interrupt or NMI context.

    - void unwind_deferred_cancel(struct unwind_work *work);

        Called by a tracer to unregister from the deferred unwind
        infrastructure.

    - void unwind_deferred_task_exit(struct task_struct *task);

        Called by task exit code to flush any pending unwind requests.

    - void unwind_task_init(struct task_struct *task);

        Called by do_fork() to initialize the task struct for the
        deferred unwinder.

    - void unwind_task_free(struct task_struct *task);

        Called by do_exit() to free up any resources used by the
        deferred unwinder.

    None of the above is actually compiled unless an architecture enables it,
    which none currently do"
