A similar patch was merged in commit 1e9535a591cf003e ("Add stack
checking for Blackfin").

In the mean time, blackfin support was removed from Linux in commit
4ba66a9760722ccb ("arch: remove blackfin port"), and from checkstack in
commit e53a05a49e10c7cf ("scripts/checkstack.pl: remove blackfin support").

Nevertheless, I can imagine it's nice to have it, as I have used
checkstack for non-Linux projects, too ;-)

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

Geert
