[PATCH v2 17/44] proc: fix return address printk conversion specifer in /proc/<pid>/stack

[Josh Poimboeuf]

When printing call return addresses found on a stack, /proc/<pid>/stack
can sometimes give a confusing result.  If the call instruction was the
last instruction in the function (which can happen when calling a
noreturn function), '%pS' will incorrectly display the name of the
function which happens to be next in the object code, rather than the
name of the actual calling function.

Use '%pB' instead, which was created for this exact purpose.
