[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@xxxxxx>

commit 9580b71b5a7863c24a9bd18bcd2ad759b86b1eff upstream.

Clear the on-stack STACK_FRAME_REGS_MARKER on exception exit in order
to avoid confusing stacktrace like the one below.

  Call Trace:
  [c0e9dca0] [c01c42a0] print_address_description+0x64/0x2bc (unreliable)

With this patch the trace becomes:
