Add generic exit-time stack-depth checking to CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE
Add generic exit-time stack-depth checking to CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE. This also adds UML support. Tested on UML and i386.

If you're involved in UML kernel development and want to use gcov,
say Y. If you're unsure, say N.
+config DEBUG_STACK_USAGE
+ bool "Stack utilization instrumentation"
+ default N
+ help
+ Track the maximum kernel stack usage - this will look at each
+ kernel stack at process exit and log it if it's the deepest
+ stack seen so far.
+
+ This option will slow down process creation and destruction somewhat.
