SubjectRe: Linux 2.6.12-rc3
	thread_info part 2:

encapsulates the rest of arch-dependent operations with thread_info access.
Two new helpers - setup_thread_info() and end_of_stack(). For normal
case the former consists of copying thread_info of parent to new thread_info
and the latter returns pointer immediately past the end of thread_info.

Again, normal platforms are obviously safe. Note that end_of_stack() is
need since unlike the default case, m68k has only a single pointer in
stack - not the entire thread_info. So DEBUG_STACK_USAGE needs to be
a bit different there.
