Fix broken contraints for both save_access_regs() and restore_access_regs(). The constraints are incorrect since they tell the compiler that the inline assemblies only access the first element of an array of 16 elements. Therefore the compiler could generate incorrect code.

The patch implements a s390 specific ptrace request PTRACE_TE_ABORT_RAND to modify the randomness of spontaneous aborts of memory transactions of the transaction execution facility. The data argument of the ptrace request is used to specify the levels of randomness, 0 for normal operation, 1 to abort every transaction at a random instruction, and 2 to abort a random transaction at a random instruction. The default is 0 for normal operation.

Allow user-space threads to use runtime instrumentation (RI). To enable RI for a thread there is a new s390 specific system call, sys_s390_runtime_instr, that takes as parameter a realtime signal number. If the RI facility is available the system call sets up a control block for the calling thread with the appropriate permissions for the thread to modify the control block. The user-space thread can then use the store and modify RI instructions to alter the control block and start/stop the instrumentation via RION/RIOFF. If the user specified program buffer runs full RI triggers an external interrupt. The external interrupt is translated to a real-time signal that is delivered to the thread that enabled RI on that CPU. The number of the real-time signal is the number specified in the RI system call. So, user-space can select any available real-time signal number in case the application itself uses real-time signals for other purposes. The kernel saves the RI control blocks on task switch only if the running thread was enabled for RI. Therefore, the performance impact on task switch should be negligible if RI is not used. RI is only enabled for user-space mode and is disabled for the supervisor state.

The archs that implement virtual cputime accounting all flush the cputime of a task when it gets descheduled and sometimes set up some ground initialization for the next task to account its cputime. These archs all put their own hooks in their context switch callbacks and handle the off-case themselves. Consolidate this by creating a new account_switch_vtime() callback called in generic code right after a context switch and that these archs must implement to flush the prev task cputime and initialize the next task cputime related state.
