I have finally reproduced the problem locally and figured out the
bug.

Please try this patch:

sparc64: Fix end-of-stack checking in save_stack_trace().

Bug reported by Alexander Beregalov.

Before we dereference the stack frame or try to peek at the
pt_regs magic value, make sure the entire object is within
the kernel stack bounds.
