commit ee213fc72fd67 introduced this code, and this is for unwinder which
uses frame pointer. I think current code stores the address of previous
(original context's) frame pointer into %rbp. So with that, if unwinder
tries to decode frame pointer, it can get the original %rbp value,
instead of &pt_regs from current %rbp.

With this change, I think stack unwinder can not get the original %rbp
value. Peter, could you check the above commit?

Thank you,
