Conceptually, we want the memory mappings to always be up to date and
represent whatever is in the TLB. To ensure that, we need to sync them
over in the userspace case and for the kernel we need to process the
mappings.

The kernel will call flush_tlb_* if page table entries that were valid
before become invalid. Unfortunately, this is not the case if entries
are added.

As such, change both flush_tlb_* and set_ptes to track the memory range
that has to be synchronized. For the kernel, we need to execute a
flush_tlb_kern_* immediately but we can wait for the first page fault in
case of set_ptes. For userspace in contrast we only store that a range
of memory needs to be synced and do so whenever we switch to that
process.

<title>um: Do not flush MM in flush_thread</title>

<content type='text'>
There should be no need to flush the memory in flush_thread. Doing this
likely worked around some issue where memory was still incorrectly
mapped when creating or cloning an MM.

With the removal of the special clone path, that isn't relevant anymore.
However, add the flush into MM initialization so that any new userspace
MM is guaranteed to be clean.

<content type='text'>
As running the syscalls is expensive due to context switches, we should
do so as late as possible in case more syscalls need to be queued later
on. This will also benefit a later move to a SECCOMP enabled userspace
as in that case the need for extra context switches is removed entirely.

The kernel flushes the memory ranges anyway for CoW and does not assume
that the userspace process has anything set up already. So, start with a
fresh process for the new mm context.

<title>um: remove LDT support</title>

<content type='text'>
The current LDT code has a few issues that mean it should be redone in a
different way once we always start with a fresh MM even when cloning.

In a new and better world, the kernel would just ensure its own LDT is
clear at startup. At that point, all that is needed is a simple function
to populate the LDT from another MM in arch_dup_mmap combined with some
tracking of the installed LDT entries for each MM.

Note that the old implementation was even incorrect with regard to
reading, as it copied out the LDT entries in the internal format rather
than converting them to the userspace structure.

Removal should be fine as the LDT is not used for thread-local storage
anymore.

<content type='text'>
Rework syscall handling to be platform independent. Also create a clean
split between queueing of syscalls and flushing them out, removing the
need to keep state in the code that triggers the syscalls.

The code adds syscall_data_len to the global mm_id structure. This will
be used later to allow surrounding code to track whether syscalls still
need to run and if errors occurred.

<title>um: Create signal stack memory assignment in stub_data</title>

<id>urn:sha1:dc26184a9d4acde988e996a437b0301b81c1ae2d</id>
<content type='text'>
When we switch to use seccomp, we need both the signal stack and other
data (i.e. syscall information) to co-exist in the stub data. To
facilitate this, start by defining separate memory areas for the stack
and syscall data.

This moves the signal stack onto a new page as the memory area is not
sufficient to hold both signal stack and syscall information.

Only change the signal stack setup for now, as the syscall code will be
reworked later.

The host PID tracked in 'cpu_tasks' is no longer used. Stopping
tracking it will also save some cycles.
