UPSTREAM: sched: panic on corrupted stack end
(cherry picked from commit 29d6455178a09e1dc340380c582b13356227e8df) Until now, hitting this BUG_ON caused a recursive oops (because oops handling involves do_exit(), which calls into the scheduler, which in turn raises an oops), which caused stuff below the stack to be overwritten until a panic happened (e.g. via an oops in interrupt context, caused by the overwritten CPU index in the thread_info). Just panic directly. Signed-off-by: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Change-Id: Ia3acb3f747f7a58ec2d071644433b0591925969f Bug: 29444228
