X-Git-Tag: baikal/mips/sdk6.1~6758^2^4~5

arm64: Make perf_callchain_kernel() 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 perf_callchain_kernel() 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 perf_callchain_kernel() use arch_stack_walk(). This simplifies
perf_callchain_kernel(), and in future will alow us to make
walk_stackframe() private to stacktrace.c.

At the same time, we update the callchain_trace() callback to check the
return value of perf_callchain_store(), which indicates whether there is
space for any further entries. When a non-zero value is returned,
further calls will be ignored, and are redundant, so we can stop the
unwind at this point.

We also remove the stale and confusing comment for callchain_trace.

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