riscv: prevent pt_regs corruption for secondary idle threads
Top of the kernel thread stack should be reserved for pt_regs. However
this is not the case for the idle threads of the secondary boot harts.
Their stacks overlap with their pt_regs, so both may get corrupted.
Similar issue has been fixed for the primary hart, see c7cdd96
("riscv: prevent stack corruption by reserving task_pt_regs(p) early").
However that fix was not propagated to the secondary harts. The problem
has been noticed in some CPU hotplug tests with V enabled. The function
smp_callin stored several registers on stack, corrupting top of pt_regs
structure including status field. As a result, kernel attempted to save
or restore inexistent V context.
Fixes: 9a2451f ("RISC-V: Avoid using per cpu array for ordered booting")
Fixes: 2875fe0 ("RISC-V: Add cpu_ops and modify default booting method")
