fork: Add generic vmalloced stack support

If CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y is selected, kernel stacks are allocated with
__vmalloc_node_range().

Grsecurity has had a similar feature (called GRKERNSEC_KSTACKOVERFLOW=y)
for a long time.

help
An arch should select this symbol if it can support kernel stacks
in vmalloc space. This means:
- vmalloc space must be large enough to hold many kernel stacks.
This may rule out many 32-bit architectures.
- Stacks in vmalloc space need to work reliably. For example, if
vmap page tables are created on demand, either this mechanism
needs to work while the stack points to a virtual address with
unpopulated page tables or arch code (switch_to() and switch_mm(),
most likely) needs to ensure that the stack's page table entries
are populated before running on a possibly unpopulated stack.
- If the stack overflows into a guard page, something reasonable
should happen. The definition of "reasonable" is flexible, but
instantly rebooting without logging anything would be unfriendly.
config VMAP_STACK

bool "Use a virtually-mapped stack"
depends on HAVE_ARCH_VMAP_STACK && !KASAN
---help---
Enable this if you want the use virtually-mapped kernel stacks
with guard pages. This causes kernel stack overflows to be
caught immediately rather than causing difficult-to-diagnose
corruption.
This is presently incompatible with KASAN because KASAN expects
the stack to map directly to the KASAN shadow map using a formula
that is incorrect if the stack is in vmalloc space.
