As TOP_OF_KERNEL_STACK_PADDING is defined as 0 on x86_64, no one noticed
it's missing in the calculation of the .sp field in INIT_THREAD until it
is defined to 16 with CONFIG_X86_FRED=y.

Subtract TOP_OF_KERNEL_STACK_PADDING from the .sp field of INIT_THREAD.

Fixes: 65c9cc9e2c14 ("x86/fred: Reserve space for the FRED stack frame")
Fixes: 3adee777ad0d ("x86/smpboot: Remove initial_stack on 64-bit")

Should this fix, if it looks good, be included for the coming merge
window?

Thanks!
Xin


Change Since v1:
* Apply offset TOP_OF_KERNEL_STACK_PADDING to all uses of __end_init_task
(Brian Gerst).
