On failure init_sysfs() might not properly free resources. The error
code of the function is not checked. And, when reinitializing the exit
function might be called twice. This patch fixes all this.

This patch fixes a crash during shutdown reported below. The crash is
caused by accessing already freed task structs. The fix changes the
order for registering and unregistering notifier callbacks.

All notifiers must be initialized before buffers start working. To
stop buffer synchronization we cancel all workqueues, unregister the
notifier callback and then flush all buffers. After all of this we
finally can free all tasks listed.

This should avoid accessing freed tasks.

Conflicts in arch/tile/configs/tile_defconfig (pick the mainline version
with the reduced defconfig).

With this change, the arch/tile Makefile will only check for a valid
combination of CROSS_COMPILE vs "uname -m" for a few common targets
that are typically the ones we get wrong (vmlinux, all, and modules).
The change handles the case of an empty "make" goal like "make all".

This commit makes the stack guard page somewhat less visible to user
space. It does this by:

 - not showing the guard page in /proc/<pid>/maps

   It looks like lvm-tools will actually read /proc/self/maps to figure
   out where all its mappings are, and effectively do a specialized
   "mlockall()" in user space.  By not showing the guard page as part of
   the mapping (by just adding PAGE_SIZE to the start for grows-up
   pages), lvm-tools ends up not being aware of it.

 - by also teaching the _real_ mlock() functionality not to try to lock
   the guard page.

   That would just expand the mapping down to create a new guard page,
   so there really is no point in trying to lock it in place.

It would perhaps be nice to show the guard page specially in
/proc/<pid>/maps (or at least mark grow-down segments some way), but
let's not open ourselves up to more breakage by user space from programs
that depends on the exact deails of the 'maps' file.

Special thanks to Henrique de Moraes Holschuh for diving into lvm-tools
source code to see what was going on with the whole new warning.

Gcc complains that ret might be used uninitialized:

I suppose it could be uninitialized if there is ever a UAC_VERSION_3
