Subject[PATCH 1/2] x86/unwind/orc: Fix ORC for newly forked tasks
Date
The ORC unwinder fails to unwind newly forked tasks which haven't yet
run on the CPU. It correctly reads the 'ret_from_fork' instruction
pointer from the stack, but it incorrectly interprets that value as a
call stack address rather than a "signal" one, so the address gets
incorrectly decremented in the call to orc_find(), resulting in bad ORC
data.

Fix it by forcing 'ret_from_fork' frames to be signal frames.
