Hi Masami,
I'm working to get a "fix" patch set push out, and I included this
patch. But when I ran it on my arch test (compiling on other archs),
this patch broke the following:
arm, blackfin, powerpc, s390.
(Note, due to other bugs, UML and mips does not build to test)
The problem is that these archs do not implement a:
save_stack_trace_regs() function.
I'm stripping this patch out of my next pull request, and it may need to
wait till 2.6.41/2.8.1/3.1.
