/*
 * TOP_OF_KERNEL_STACK_PADDING is a number of unused bytes that we
 * reserve at the top of the kernel stack.  We do it because of a nasty
 * 32-bit corner case.  On x86_32, the hardware stack frame is
 * variable-length.  Except for vm86 mode, struct pt_regs assumes a
 * maximum-length frame.  If we enter from CPL 0, the top 8 bytes of
 * pt_regs don't actually exist.  Ordinarily this doesn't matter, but it
 * does in at least one case:
 *
 * If we take an NMI early enough in SYSENTER, then we can end up with
 * pt_regs that extends above sp0.  On the way out, in the espfix code,
 * we can read the saved SS value, but that value will be above sp0.
 * Without this offset, that can result in a page fault.  (We are
 * careful that, in this case, the value we read doesn't matter.)
 *
 * In vm86 mode, the hardware frame is much longer still, so add 16
 * bytes to make room for the real-mode segments.
 *
 * x86_64 has a fixed-length stack frame.
