It's unused.

It isn't needed -- read or write flag is already passed and sysctl
shouldn't care about the rest.

It _was_ used in two places at arch/frv for some reason.

The last entry in the stack_dump_trace is ULONG_MAX, which is not
a valid entry, but max_stack_trace.nr_entries has accounted for it.
So when printing the header, we should decrease it by one.
Before fix, print as following, for example:

	Depth    Size   Location    (53 entries)	<--- should be 52
	-----    ----   --------
  0)     3264     108   update_wall_time+0x4d5/0x9a0

 51)       80      80   syscall_call+0x7/0xb

   it's correct.

If the stack tracing is disabled (by default) the stack_trace file
will only contain the header:

 # cat /debug/tracing/stack_trace
        Depth    Size      Location    (0 entries)
        -----    ----      --------

This can be frustrating to a developer that does not realize that the
stack tracer is disabled. This patch adds the following text:

  # cat /debug/tracing/stack_trace
        Depth    Size      Location    (0 entries)
        -----    ----      --------
 #

Impact: enhancement to stack tracer

The stack tracer currently is either on when configured in or
off when it is not. It can not be disabled when it is configured on.
(besides disabling the function tracer that it uses)

This patch adds a way to enable or disable the stack tracer at
run time. It defaults off on bootup, but a kernel parameter 'stacktrace'
has been added to enable it on bootup.

A new sysctl has been added "kernel.stack_tracer_enabled" to let
the user enable or disable the stack tracer at run time.

Impact: make output of stack_trace complete if buffer overruns

When read buffer overruns, the output of stack_trace isn't complete.

When printing records with seq_printf in t_show, if the read buffer
has overruned by the current record, then this record won't be
printed to user space through read buffer, it will just be dropped in
this printing.

When next printing, t_start should return the "*pos"th record, which
is the one dropped by previous printing, but it just returns
(m->private + *pos)th record.

Here we use a more sane method to implement seq_operations which can
be found in kernel code. Thus we needn't initialize m->private.

About testing, it's not easy to overrun read buffer, but we can use
seq_printf to print more padding bytes in t_show, then it's easy to
check whether or not records are lost.

This commit has been tested on both condition of overrun and non
overrun.

Impact: use new, consolidated APIs in ftrace plugins

The stack trace API does not record if the stack is not on the current
task's stack. That is, if the stack is the interrupt stack or NMI stack,
the output does not show. Also, the size of those stacks are not
consistent with the size of the thread stack, this makes the calculation
of the stack size usually bogus.

This all confuses the stack tracer. I unfortunately do not have time to
fix all these problems, but this patch does record the worst stack when
the stack pointer is on the tasks stack (instead of bogus numbers).

The patch simply returns if the stack pointer is not on the task's stack.

This is another tracer using the ftrace infrastructure, that examines
at each function call the size of the stack. If the stack use is greater
than the previous max it is recorded.

You can always see (and set) the max stack size seen. By setting it
to zero will start the recording again. The backtrace is also available.
