x86/unwind: Adjust last frame check for aligned function stacks
Somehow, CONFIG_PARAVIRT=n convinces gcc to change the
x86_64_start_kernel() prologue from:
0000000000000129 <x86_64_start_kernel>:
129: 55 push %rbp
12a: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
to:
0000000000000124 <x86_64_start_kernel>:
124: 4c 8d 54 24 08 lea 0x8(%rsp),%r10
129: 48 83 e4 f0 and $0xfffffffffffffff0,%rsp
12d: 41 ff 72 f8 pushq -0x8(%r10)
131: 55 push %rbp
132: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
This is an unusual pattern which aligns rsp (though in this case it's
already aligned) and saves the start_cpu() return address again on the
stack before storing the frame pointer.
The unwinder assumes the last stack frame header is at a certain offset,
but the above code breaks that assumption, resulting in the following
warning:
WARNING: kernel stack frame pointer at ffffffff82e03f40 in swapper:0 has bad value (null)
Fix it by checking for the last task stack frame at the aligned offset
in addition to the normal unaligned offset.
Fixes: acb4608ad186 ("x86/unwind: Create stack frames for saved syscall registers")
