v2: Added various acks/reviews. I'll follow up with rewriting the x86
part as asm macros once that work is in mainline.

Patches 15, 16 are in next-20181009; in hindsight I should probably
have asked Rafael not to pick those. Patch 17 textually depend on
those, and patch 19 removes the .flags field, so depends on 15 so that
there are no references to that field. I'm included all patches here
hoping that the merge conflicts are trivial, given that it's just same
patches present in multiple branches.

Andrew, can you pick up these to give them some time in -next?

v1 cover letter:

This started as an experiment to see how hard it would be to change
the four pointers in struct _ddebug into relative offsets, a la
CONFIG_GENERIC_BUG_RELATIVE_POINTERS, thus saving 16 bytes per
pr_debug site (and thus exactly making up for the extra space used by
the introduction of jump labels in 9049fc74). I stumbled on a few
things that are probably worth fixing regardless of whether the latter
half of this series is deemed worthwhile.

Patch relationships: 1-2, 3-4, 5-6 and 15-16 can be applied
individually, though 2, 4 and 6 probably makes most sense in the
context of the final goal of the series.

7-12 I believe make sense on their own. Patch 13 again only makes
sense if we go all the way, and 14 and 17 depend on 13.

18-21 are more preparatory patches, and finally 22 switch over x86-64
to use CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_RELATIVE_POINTERS. I've tested that the
end result boots under virtme and that the dynamic_debug control file
has the expected contents.

So I have dropped them (which was easy enough to do).

Thanks,
Rafael

v2: Added various acks/reviews.

v3: Rebased on top of v4.20-rc1, and (consequently) reimplemented the
x86 part using Nadav's asm macro infrastructure. I've taken the
liberty of preserving acks/reviews for the first 20, since the rebase
was completely clean. OTOH, I've removed any acks/reviews from the
last three patches, since they are essentially completely new in this
version.

Since there are some interdependencies, it's simplest if these go
through the same tree. Andrew, can I get you to pick up patches 1
through 17? They should be ready for some time in -next. If and when
the last three (new) patches get ack'ed, I'll ask you to pick up the
last 6 (Jason has ack'ed 18-20, but they don't make much sense without
at least one arch opting in to use DYNAMIC_DEBUG_RELATIVE_POINTERS).

Back at v3 (in November), I redid the implementation on top of the
fancy new asm-macros stuff. Luckily enough, v3 didn't get picked up,
since the asm-macros were backed out again. I still want to do the
relative-pointers thing eventually, but we're close to the merge
window opening, so here's just most of the "incidental" patches, some
of which also serve as preparation for the relative pointers.

I'm not sure how long an Ack/Reviewed-by is good for, but OTOH it also
feels rude to just drop them on the floor. I've kept those tags since
the rebasing to current master went completely smooth.

Andrew, please pick these up for soaking in -next.
