[SRU][J][PATCH 1/1] riscv: prevent pt_regs corruption for secondary idle threads

[Koichiro Den]

From: Sergey Matyukevich <sergey.matyukevich at syntacore.com>

Top of the kernel thread stack should be reserved for pt_regs. However
this is not the case for the idle threads of the secondary boot harts.
Their stacks overlap with their pt_regs, so both may get corrupted.

Similar issue has been fixed for the primary hart, see c7cdd96eca28
("riscv: prevent stack corruption by reserving task_pt_regs(p) early").
However that fix was not propagated to the secondary harts. The problem
has been noticed in some CPU hotplug tests with V enabled. The function
smp_callin stored several registers on stack, corrupting top of pt_regs
structure including status field. As a result, kernel attempted to save
or restore inexistent V context.

Fixes: 9a2451f18663 ("RISC-V: Avoid using per cpu array for ordered booting")
Fixes: 2875fe056156 ("RISC-V: Add cpu_ops and modify default booting method")
