KMSAN does not instrument stackdepot and may treat memory allocated by it
as uninitialized.  This is not a problem for KMSAN itself, because its
functions calling stackdepot API are also not instrumented.  But other
kernel features (e.g.  netdev tracker) may access stack depot from
instrumented code, which will lead to false positives, unless we
explicitly mark stackdepot outputs as initialized.

Move all interface- and usage-related documentation comments to
include/linux/stackdepot.h.

It makes sense to have them in the header where they are available to
the interface users.

Accesses to pool_index are protected by pool_lock everywhere except
in a sanity check in stack_depot_fetch. The read access there can race
with the write access in depot_alloc_stack.

Use WRITE/READ_ONCE() to annotate the racy accesses.

As the sanity check is only used to print a warning in case of a
violation of the stack depot interface usage, it does not make a lot
of sense to use proper synchronization.

<title>lib/stacktrace, kasan, kmsan: rework extra_bits interface</title>

<content type='text'>
The current implementation of the extra_bits interface is confusing:
passing extra_bits to __stack_depot_save makes it seem that the extra
bits are somehow stored in stack depot. In reality, they are only
embedded into a stack depot handle and are not used within stack depot.

Drop the extra_bits argument from __stack_depot_save and instead provide
a new stack_depot_set_extra_bits function (similar to the exsiting
stack_depot_get_extra_bits) that saves extra bits into a stack depot
handle.

Update the callers of __stack_depot_save to use the new interace.

This change also fixes a minor issue in the old code: __stack_depot_save
does not return NULL if saving stack trace fails and extra_bits is used.

<title>lib/stackdepot: rename next_pool_inited to next_pool_required</title>

Stack depot uses next_pool_inited to mark that either the next pool is
initialized or the limit on the number of pools is reached. However,
the flag name only reflects the former part of its purpose, which is
confusing.

Rename next_pool_inited to next_pool_required and invert its value.

Also annotate usages of next_pool_required with comments.

depot_init_pool has two call sites:

1. In depot_alloc_stack with a potentially NULL prealloc.
2. In __stack_depot_save with a non-NULL prealloc.

At the same time depot_init_pool can only return false when prealloc is
NULL.

As the second call site makes sure that prealloc is not NULL, the WARN_ON
there can never trigger. Thus, drop the WARN_ON and also move the prealloc
check from depot_init_pool to its first call site.

Also change the return type of depot_init_pool to void as it now always
returns true.

<content type='text'>
Change the "STACK_ALLOC_" prefix to "DEPOT_" for the constants that
define the number of bits in stack depot handles and the maximum number
of pools.

The old prefix is unclear and makes wonder about how these constants
are related to stack allocations. The new prefix is also shorter.

Also simplify the comment for DEPOT_POOL_ORDER.

No functional changes.

Change the "STACK_ALLOC_" prefix to "DEPOT_" for the constants that
define the number of bits in stack depot handles and the maximum number
of pools.

The old prefix is unclear and makes wonder about how these constants
are related to stack allocations. The new prefix is also shorter.

Also simplify the comment for DEPOT_POOL_ORDER.

No functional changes.
