Miroslav Benes 380178ef7f stacktrace: Remove weak version of save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable() 
Recent rework of stack trace infrastructure introduced a new set of
helpers for common stack trace operations (commit e9b98e162a
("stacktrace: Provide helpers for common stack trace operations") and
related). As a result, save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable() is not directly
called anywhere. Livepatch, currently the only user of the reliable
stack trace feature, now calls stack_trace_save_tsk_reliable().

When CONFIG_HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE is set and depending on
CONFIG_ARCH_STACKWALK, stack_trace_save_tsk_reliable() calls either
arch_stack_walk_reliable() or mentioned save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable().
x86_64 defines the former, ppc64le the latter. All other architectures
do not have HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE and include/linux/stacktrace.h
defines -ENOSYS returning version for them.

In short, stack_trace_save_tsk_reliable() returning -ENOSYS defined in
include/linux/stacktrace.h serves the same purpose as the old weak
version of save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable() which is therefore no longer
needed.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
