[ Upstream commit 612695bccfdbd52004551308a55bae410e7cd22f ]
Store the frame address where arm_get_current_stackframe() looks for it
(ARM_r7 instead of ARM_fp if CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL=y). Otherwise frame->fp
gets set to 0, causing unwind_frame() to fail.
# bpftrace -e 't:sched:sched_switch { @[kstack] = count(); exit(); }'

A typical first unwind instruction is 0x97 (SP = R7), so after executing
it SP ends up being 0 and -URC_FAILURE is returned.
unwind_frame(pc = ac9da7d7 lr = 00000000 sp = c69bdda0 fp = 00000000)
unwind_find_idx(ac9da7d7)
unwind_exec_insn: insn = 00000097
unwind_exec_insn: fp = 00000000 sp = 00000000 lr = 00000000 pc = 00000000
With this patch:
# bpftrace -e 't:sched:sched_switch { @[kstack] = count(); exit(); }'
