commit: a644cf538b1125410421584c68b2013fdbecbd79 [9/11] x86/dumpstack: Don't dump kernel memory based on usermode RIP
reproduce:
        # apt-get install sparse
        git checkout a644cf538b1125410421584c68b2013fdbecbd79
        make ARCH=x86_64 allmodconfig
        make C=1 CF=-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__

    75	 * There are a couple of reasons for the 2/3rd prologue, courtesy of Linus:
    76	 *
    77	 * In case where we don't have the exact kernel image (which, if we did, we can
    78	 * simply disassemble and navigate to the RIP), the purpose of the bigger
    79	 * prologue is to have more context and to be able to correlate the code from
    80	 * the different toolchains better.
    81	 *
    82	 * In addition, it helps in recreating the register allocation of the failing
    83	 * kernel and thus make sense of the register dump.
    84	 *
    85	 * What is more, the additional complication of a variable length insn arch like
    86	 * x86 warrants having longer byte sequence before rIP so that the disassembler
    87	 * can "sync" up properly and find instruction boundaries when decoding the
    88	 * opcode bytes.
    89	 *
    90	 * Thus, the 2/3rds prologue and 64 byte OPCODE_BUFSIZE is just a random
    91	 * guesstimate in attempt to achieve all of the above.
