At the moment we randomise the stack by 8MB on 32bit and 64bit tasks. Since we
have a lot more address space to play with on 64bit, lets do what x86 does and
increase that randomisation to 1GB:
before:
# for i in seq `1 10` ; do sleep 1 & cat /proc/${!}/maps | grep stack; done
fffffebc000-fffffed1000 rw-p ffffffeb000 00:00 0 [stack]
ffffff5a000-ffffff6f000 rw-p ffffffeb000 00:00 0 [stack]
fffffdb2000-fffffdc7000 rw-p ffffffeb000 00:00 0 [stack]
fffffd3e000-fffffd53000 rw-p ffffffeb000 00:00 0 [stack]
fffffad9000-fffffaee000 rw-p ffffffeb000 00:00 0 [stack]
after:
# for i in seq `1 10` ; do sleep 1 & cat /proc/${!}/maps | grep stack; done
ffff5c27000-ffff5c3c000 rw-p ffffffeb000 00:00 0 [stack]
fffebe5e000-fffebe73000 rw-p ffffffeb000 00:00 0 [stack]
fffcb298000-fffcb2ad000 rw-p ffffffeb000 00:00 0 [stack]
fffc719d000-fffc71b2000 rw-p ffffffeb000 00:00 0 [stack]
fffe01af000-fffe01c4000 rw-p ffffffeb000 00:00 0 [stack]

arch_setup_additional_pages currently gets two arguments, the binary
format descripton and an indication if the process uses an executable
stack or not. The second argument is not used by anybody, it could
be removed without replacement.
What actually does make sense is to pass an indication if the process
uses the elf interpreter or not. The glibc code will not use anything
from the vdso if the process does not use the dynamic linker, so for
statically linked binaries the architecture backend can choose not
to map the vdso.

The SET_PERSONALITY macro is always called with a second argument of 0.
Remove the ibcs argument and the various tests to set the PER_SVR4
personality.

Commit deac93df26 ("lib: Correct printk
%pF to work on all architectures") broke the non modular builds by
moving an essential function into modules.c. Fix this by moving it
out again and into asm/sections.h as an inline. To do this, the
definition of struct ppc64_opd_entry has been lifted out of modules.c
and put in asm/elf.h where it belongs.

from include/asm-powerpc. This is the result of a
mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm
git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm
Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places
where <asm-powepc/...> was being used explicitly. Of the latter only
one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.
