Andrey Konovalov 36aa1e6779 lib/stacktrace, kasan, kmsan: rework extra_bits interface
The current implementation of the extra_bits interface is confusing:
passing extra_bits to __stack_depot_save makes it seem that the extra
bits are somehow stored in stack depot. In reality, they are only
embedded into a stack depot handle and are not used within stack depot.

Drop the extra_bits argument from __stack_depot_save and instead provide
a new stack_depot_set_extra_bits function (similar to the exsiting
stack_depot_get_extra_bits) that saves extra bits into a stack depot
handle.

Update the callers of __stack_depot_save to use the new interace.

This change also fixes a minor issue in the old code: __stack_depot_save
does not return NULL if saving stack trace fails and extra_bits is used.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
