x86/unwind: Prevent false warnings for non-current tasks
There's some daring kernel code out there which dumps the stack of another task without first making sure the task is inactive. If the task happens to be running while the unwinder is reading the stack, unusual unwinder warnings can result. There's no race-free way for the unwinder to know whether such a warning is legitimate, so just disable unwinder warnings for all non-current tasks.
