Therefore its not possible to implement current_thread_info() by looking at the stack pointer and do some simple calculations like most other architectures do it. To return the thread_info pointer for a task two defines are used. This works until the spinlock function bodies get moved into an own header file and CONFIG_SPINLOCK_DEBUG is turned on. That results into this compile error: In file included from include/linux/spinlock.h:378, from include/linux/seqlock.h:29, from include/linux/time.h:8, from include/linux/timex.h:56, from include/linux/sched.h:54, from arch/m68k/kernel/asm-offsets.c:12: include/linux/spinlock_api_smp.h: In function '__spin_unlock_irq': include/linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:371: error: 'current' undeclared (first use in this function) include/linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:371: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once include/linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:371: error: for each function it appears in.) Including asm/current.h to asm-offsets.c wouldn't help since the definition of struct task is needed. So we end up with ugly header file include dependencies. To solve this calculate the offset of the thread_info structure into the task struct in asm-offsets.h and use the offset in task_thread_info(). This works just like it does for IA64 as well.
