[PATCH] stacktrace: Move documentation for arch_stack_walk_reliable() to header

From: Mark Brown
Date: Mon Jan 18 2021 - 16:17:57 EST


Currently arch_stack_wallk_reliable() is documented with an identical
comment in both x86 and S/390 implementations which is a bit redundant.
Move this to the header and convert to kerneldoc while we're at it.
