Pull more Kunit updates from Shuah Khan:

 - add Kunit to kernel_init() and remove KUnit from init calls entirely.

   This addresses the concern that Kunit would not work correctly during
   late init phase.

 - add a linker section where KUnit can put references to its test
   suites.

   This is the first step in transitioning to dispatching all KUnit
   tests from a centralized executor rather than having each as its own
   separate late_initcall.

 - add a centralized executor to dispatch tests rather than relying on
   late_initcall to schedule each test suite separately. Centralized
   execution is for built-in tests only; modules will execute tests when
   loaded.

 - convert bitfield test to use KUnit framework

 - Documentation updates for naming guidelines and how
   kunit_test_suite() works.

 - add test plan to KUnit TAP format

Although we have not seen any actual examples where KUnit doesn't work
because it runs in the late init phase of the kernel, it has been a
concern for some time that this could potentially be an issue in the
future. So, remove KUnit from init calls entirely, instead call directly
from kernel_init() so that KUnit runs after late init.

<title>kprobes: tracing/kprobes: Fix to kill kprobes on initmem after boot</title>

Since kprobe_event= cmdline option allows user to put kprobes on the
functions in initmem, kprobe has to make such probes gone after boot.
Currently the probes on the init functions in modules will be handled
by module callback, but the kernel init text isn't handled.
Without this, kprobes may access non-exist text area to disable or
remove it.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - The biggest news in that the tracing ring buffer can now time events
   that interrupted other ring buffer events.

   Before this change, if an interrupt came in while recording another
   event, and that interrupt also had an event, those events would all
   have the same time stamp as the event it interrupted.

   Now, with the new design, those events will have a unique time stamp
   and rightfully display the time for those events that were recorded
   while interrupting another event.

 - Bootconfig how has an "override" operator that lets the users have a
   default config, but then add options to override the default.

 - A fix was made to properly filter function graph tracing to the
   ftrace PIDs. This came in at the end of the -rc cycle, and needs to
   be backported.

 - Several clean ups, performance updates, and minor fixes as well.

This patch prepares Software Tag-Based KASAN for stack tagging support.

With stack tagging enabled, KASAN tags stack variable in each function in
its prologue.  In start_kernel() stack variables get tagged before KASAN
is enabled via setup_arch()-&gt;kasan_init().  As the result the tags for
start_kernel()'s stack variables end up in the temporary shadow memory.
Later when KASAN gets enabled, switched to normal shadow, and starts
checking tags, this leads to false-positive reports, as proper tags are
missing in normal shadow.

Disable KASAN instrumentation for start_kernel().  Also disable it for
arm64's setup_arch() as a precaution (it doesn't have any stack variables
right now).
