Subject[PATCH] ARM: Fix r7/r11 confusion when CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL=y
Date
There is currently some inconsistency about the "frame pointer" on ARM.
r11 is the register with assemblers recognize and disassemblers often
print as "fp", and which is sufficient for stack unwinding when using
the APCS frame pointer option; but when unwinding with the Exception
Handling ABI, the register GCC uses when a constant offset won't suffice
(or when -fno-omit-frame-pointer is used; see kernel/sched/Makefile in
particular) is r11 on ARM and r7 on Thumb.

Correspondingly, arch/arm/include/uapi/arm/ptrace.h defines ARM_fp to
refer to r11, but arch/arm/kernel/unwind.c uses "FP" to mean either r11
or r7 depending on Thumbness, and it is unclear what other cases such as
the "fp" in struct stackframe should be doing.

Effects of this are probably limited to failure of EHABI unwinding when
starting from a function that uses r7 to restore its stack pointer, but
the possibility for further breakage (which would be invisible on
non-Thumb kernels) is worrying.

With this change, it is hoped, r7 is consistently referred to as "r7",
and "fp" always means r11; this costs a few extra ifdefs, but it should
help prevent future issues.
