Provide a helper in stackdepot to print stack entries
based on stackdepot handle.
Also change above mentioned users to use this helper.

+void stack_depot_print(depot_stack_handle_t stack)

+ nr_entries = stack_depot_fetch(stack, &entries);

Maybe this should also skip stack_trace_print when nr_entries is 0, to avoid
the warning. While the callers added by this patch check handle != 0, future
ones might not.

Agree. I have incorporated this suggestion in latest version [1]
