s390/unwind: start unwinding from reliable state
A comment in arch/s390/include/asm/unwind.h says: > If 'first_frame' is not zero unwind_start skips unwind frames until it > reaches the specified stack pointer. > The end of the unwinding is indicated with unwind_done, this can be true > right after unwind_start, e.g. with first_frame!=0 that can not be found. > unwind_next_frame skips to the next frame. > Once the unwind is completed unwind_error() can be used to check if there > has been a situation where the unwinder could not correctly understand > the tasks call chain. With this change backchain unwinder now comply with behaviour described. As well as matches orc unwinder implementation. Now unwinder starts from reliable state, i.e. __unwind_start own stack frame is taken or stack frame generated by __switch_to (ksp) - both known to be valid. In case of pt_regs %r15 is better match for pt_regs psw, than sometimes random "sp" caller passed.
