arm64: Make profile_pc() use arch_stack_walk()
To enable RELIABLE_STACKTRACE and LIVEPATCH on arm64, we need to substantially rework arm64's unwinding code. As part of this, we want to minimize the set of unwind interfaces we expose, and avoid open-coding of unwind logic outside of stacktrace.c. Currently profile_pc() walks the stack of an interrupted context by calling start_backtrace() with the context's PC and FP, and iterating unwind steps using walk_stackframe(). This is functionally equivalent to calling arch_stack_walk() with the interrupted context's pt_regs, which will start with the PC and FP from the regs. Make profile_pc() use arch_stack_walk(). This simplifies profile_pc(), and in future will alow us to make walk_stackframe() private to stacktrace.c. At the same time, we remove the early return for when regs->pc is not in lock functions, as this will be handled by the first call to the profile_pc_cb() callback. There should be no functional change as a result of this patch. Signed-off-by: Madhavan T.
