[PATCH 3/3] proc: fix /proc/<pid>/stack for running tasks

From: Josh Poimboeuf
Date: Mon Feb 16 2015 - 13:54:32 EST


Reading /proc/<pid>/stack for a running task can show garbage. Use the
new safe version of the stack saving interface. For running tasks
(other than current) it won't show anything.
