arm64: Make profile_pc() use arch_stack_walk()

To enable RELIABLE_STACKTRACE and LIVEPATCH on arm64, we need to
substantially rework arm64's unwinding code. As part of this, we want to
minimize the set of unwind interfaces we expose, and avoid open-coding
of unwind logic outside of stacktrace.c.

Currently profile_pc() walks the stack of an interrupted context by
calling start_backtrace() with the context's PC and FP, and iterating
unwind steps using walk_stackframe(). This is functionally equivalent to
calling arch_stack_walk() with the interrupted context's pt_regs, which
will start with the PC and FP from the regs.

Make profile_pc() use arch_stack_walk(). This simplifies profile_pc(),
and in future will alow us to make walk_stackframe() private to
stacktrace.c.

At the same time, we remove the early return for when regs->pc is not in
lock functions, as this will be handled by the first call to the
profile_pc_cb() callback.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
