Josh Poimboeuf 5d5e60c80f x86/head: Add unwind hint annotations
commit 2704fbb672 upstream.

Jiri Slaby reported an ORC issue when unwinding from an idle task.  The
stack was:

    ffffffff811083c2 do_idle+0x142/0x1e0
    ffffffff8110861d cpu_startup_entry+0x5d/0x60
    ffffffff82715f58 start_kernel+0x3ff/0x407
    ffffffff827153e8 x86_64_start_kernel+0x14e/0x15d
    ffffffff810001bf secondary_startup_64+0x9f/0xa0

The ORC unwinder errored out at secondary_startup_64 because the head
code isn't annotated yet so there wasn't a corresponding ORC entry.

Fix that and any other head-related unwinding issues by adding unwind
hints to the head code.

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
