Add basic checks to identify invalid instruction pointers when walking
stack frames:
Instruction pointers must
- have even addresses
- be larger than mmap_min_addr
- lower than the asce_limit of the process
Alternatively it would also be possible to walk page tables similar to fast
GUP and verify that the mapping of the corresponding page is executable,
however that seems to be overkill.

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 reStructuredText 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.
