When loading the UML binary, the host kernel will place the stack at the
highest possible address. It will then map the program name and
environment variables onto the start of the stack.
As such, an easy way to figure out the host_task_size is to use the
highest pointer to an environment variable as a reference.
Ensure that this works by disabling address layout randomization and
re-executing UML in case it was enabled.
This increases the available TASK_SIZE for 64 bit UML considerably.

These registers are saved/restored together with the other general
registers using ptrace. In arch_set_tls we then just need to set the
register and it will be synced back normally.
Most of this logic was introduced in commit f355559cf7 ("[PATCH] uml:
x86_64 thread fixes"). However, at least today we can rely on ptrace to
restore the base registers for us. As such, only the part of the patch
that tracks the FS register for use as thread local storage is actually
needed.

I added $(srctree)/ to some included Makefiles in the following commits:
- 3204a7fb98 ("kbuild: prefix $(srctree)/ to some included Makefiles")
- d828563955 ("kbuild: do not require sub-make for separate output tree builds")
They were a preparation for removing --include-dir flag.
I have never thought --include-dir useful. Rather, it _is_ harmful.
For example, run the following commands:
$ make -s ARCH=x86 mrproper defconfig
$ make ARCH=arm O=foo dtbs
make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/linux/foo'
HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep
Error: kernelrelease not valid - run 'make prepare' to update it
UPD include/config/kernel.release
make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/linux/foo'
The first command configures the source tree for x86. The next command
tries to build ARM device trees in the separate foo/ directory - this
must stop because the directory foo/ has not been configured yet.
However, due to --include-dir=$(abs_srctree), the top Makefile includes
the wrong include/config/auto.conf from the source tree and continues
building. Kbuild traverses the directory tree, but of course it does
not work correctly. The Error message is also pointless - 'make prepare'
does not help at all for fixing the issue.
This commit fixes more arch Makefile, and finally removes --include-dir
from the top Makefile.
There are more breakages under drivers/, but I do not volunteer to fix
them all. I just moved --include-dir to drivers/Makefile.
With this commit, the second command will stop with a sensible message.
$ make -s ARCH=x86 mrproper defconfig
$ make ARCH=arm O=foo dtbs
make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/linux/foo'
SYNC include/config/auto.conf.cmd
