    x86/unwinder: Handle stack overflows more gracefully · b02fcf9b
    Josh Poimboeuf authored
    There are at least two unwinder bugs hindering the debugging of
    stack-overflow crashes:
    
    - It doesn't deal gracefully with the case where the stack overflows and
      the stack pointer itself isn't on a valid stack but the
      to-be-dereferenced data *is*.
    
    - The ORC oops dump code doesn't know how to print partial pt_regs, for the
      case where if we get an interrupt/exception in *early* entry code
      before the full pt_regs have been saved.
    
    Fix both issues.
