Currently unwind_dump() dumps only the most recently accessed stack.
But it has a few issues.
In some cases, 'first_sp' can get out of sync with 'stack_info', causing
unwind_dump() to start from the wrong address, flood the printk buffer,
and eventually read a bad address.
In other cases, dumping only the most recently accessed stack doesn't
give enough data to diagnose the error.
Fix both issues by dumping *all* stacks involved in the trace, not just
the last one.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
