[PATCH v9 02/11] arm64: Make perf_callchain_kernel() use arch_stack_walk()

From: madvenka
Date: Thu Oct 14 2021 - 22:35:04 EST


From: "Madhavan T. Venkataraman" <madvenka@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently, perf_callchain_kernel() in ARM64 code walks the stack using
start_backtrace() and walk_stackframe(). Make it use arch_stack_walk()
instead. This makes maintenance easier.
