Andy reported that the current state of event_idx is rather confused.
So remove all but the x86_pmu implementation and change the default to
return 0 (the safe option).

<id>6ed15ea67b5ebb13ececcfc6056d90a70ed96f7b</id>
<content type='text'>
Add an ftrace_graph_is_dead() check to prepare_ftrace_return() in order to
detect an internal ftrace graph error. This allows to prevent further ftrace
graph handling and hopefully keeps the kernel alive.

This patch is the same like for all other architectures.
For unkown reasons s390 was left out.

<content type='text'>
The kernel provided vdso functions do not get a stack frame from the
calling function and therefore may not change the stack contents, unless
they allocate space on their own.

This problem was exposed with 070b7be633dc "s390/vdso: replace stck with
stcke" which writes 16 bytes instead of 8 bytes into the stack frame. These
additional 8 bytes however were indeed used by the caller (glibc) to save
data and therefore this data was corrupted by the vdso code.

  hooks in before the audit syscall entry code.  audit_syscall_entry
  took as an argument the arch of the given syscall.  Since the arch is
  part of what makes a syscall number meaningful it's an important part
  of the record, but it isn't available when seccomp shoots the
  syscall...

  For most arch's we have a better way to get the arch (syscall_get_arch)
  So the solution was two fold: Implement syscall_get_arch() everywhere
  there is audit which didn't have it.  Use syscall_get_arch() in the
  seccomp audit code.  Having syscall_get_arch() everywhere meant it was
  a useless flag on the stack and we could get rid of it for the typical
  syscall entry.

  The other changes inside the audit system aren't grand, fixed some
  records that had invalid spaces.  Better locking around the task comm
  field.  Removing some dead functions and structs.  Make some things
  static.  Really minor stuff"
