randstruct: Mark various structs for randomization
This marks many critical kernel structures for randomization. These are structures that have been targeted in the past in security exploits, or contain functions pointers, pointers to function pointer tables, lists, workqueues, ref-counters, credentials, permissions, or are otherwise sensitive. This initial list was extracted from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code. Left out of this list is task_struct, which requires special handling and will be covered in a subsequent patch. Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>
