Rick Edgecombe 98cfa46309 x86: Introduce userspace API for shadow stack
Add three new arch_prctl() handles:

 - ARCH_SHSTK_ENABLE/DISABLE enables or disables the specified
   feature. Returns 0 on success or a negative value on error.

 - ARCH_SHSTK_LOCK prevents future disabling or enabling of the
   specified feature. Returns 0 on success or a negative value
   on error.

The features are handled per-thread and inherited over fork(2)/clone(2),
but reset on exec().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
