In the following commit:
0100301bfd ("sched/x86: Rewrite the switch_to() code")
... the layout of the 'inactive_task_frame' struct was designed to have
a frame pointer header embedded in it, so that the unwinder could use
the 'bp' and 'ret_addr' fields to report __schedule() on the stack (or
ret_from_fork() for newly forked tasks which haven't actually run yet).
Finish the job by changing get_frame_pointer() to return a pointer to
inactive_task_frame's 'bp' field rather than 'bp' itself. This allows
the unwinder to start one frame higher on the stack, so that it properly
reports __schedule().

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.
