arm64: stacktrace: factor out kunwind_stack_walk()
Currently arm64 uses the generic arch_stack_walk() interface for all stack walking code. This only passes a PC value and cookie to the unwind callback, whereas we'd like to pass some additional information in some cases. For example, the BPF exception unwinder wants the FP, for reliable stacktrace we'll want to perform additional checks on other portions of unwind state, and we'd like to expand the information printed by dump_backtrace() to include provenance and reliability information. As preparation for all of the above, this patch factors the core unwind logic out of arch_stack_walk() and into a new kunwind_stack_walk() function which provides all of the unwind state to a callback function. The existing arch_stack_walk() interface is implemented atop this. The kunwind_stack_walk() function is intended to be a private implementation detail of unwinders in stacktrace.c, and not something to be exported generally to kernel code. It is __always_inline'd into its caller so that neither it or its caller appear in stactraces (which is the existing/required behavior for arch_stack_walk() and friends) and so that the compiler can optimize away some of the indirection. There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
