[PATCH 08/43] x86/dumpstack: Handle stack overflow on all stacks

From: Ingo Molnar
Date: Fri Nov 24 2017 - 12:25:02 EST


From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@xxxxxxxxxx>

We currently special-case stack overflow on the task stack. We're
going to start putting special stacks in the fixmap with a custom
layout, so they'll have guard pages, too. Teach the unwinder to be
able to unwind an overflow of any of the stacks.
