Mostly unwind is done with irqs enabled however SLUB may call it with
irqs disabled while creating a new SLUB cache.
I had system freeze while loading a module which called
kmem_cache_create() on init. That means SLUB's __slab_alloc() disabled
interrupts and then
->new_slab_objects()
->new_slab()
->setup_object()
->setup_object_debug()
->init_tracking()
->set_track()
->save_stack_trace()
->save_stack_trace_tsk()
->walk_stackframe()
->unwind_frame()
->unwind_find_idx()
=>spin_lock_irqsave(&unwind_lock);

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
