From: Oleg Nesterov - valid_stack_ptr() erroneously assumes that stack always lives in task_struct->thread_info. - the main loop in show_trace() does not recalc ebp after stack switching. With CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER every call to print_context_stack() will produce the same output. With this patch, show_trace() does not use task argument in the main loop. Instead, it converts stack to thread_info* context, and passes it to print_context_stack() and (implicitly) to valid_stack_ptr(). valid_stack_ptr() now does bounds checking against proper context.
