Subject[PATCH RT] arm/unwind: fail on unwind in irq disabled regions
Date
Mostly unwind is done with irqs enabled however SLUB may call it with
irqs disabled while creating a new SLUB cache.

I had system freeze while loading a module which called
kmem_cache_create() on init. That means SLUB's __slab_alloc() disabled
interrupts and then

->new_slab_objects()
->new_slab()
->setup_object()
->setup_object_debug()
->init_tracking()
->set_track()
->save_stack_trace()
->save_stack_trace_tsk()
->walk_stackframe()
->unwind_frame()
->unwind_find_idx()
=>spin_lock_irqsave(&unwind_lock);

I would prefer not to turn this into a raw lock so for now it will just
fail if it is called with irqs disabled which might return a few "empty"
traces…
