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.
