Cover letter [patch 0/3] kallsyms: Add gate page and all symbols support

Three patches with the overall aim of improving kernel backtraces using kallsyms.

1 Clean up the special casing of in_gate_area().

2 Add in_gate_area_no_task() for use from places where no task is valid.

3 Treat the gate page as part of the kernel. Honour CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL.
