If sv_pc is in module text area, kernel_text_address() returns true.

There's a basic check for sv_fp at the end of 1004.
But I'm not sure is it enough to prevent the 1001 crash you mentioned.
Should we add a verify_stack for sv_fp?

On our arm platform, kernel just die becuase the Unhandled fault in for_each_frame.
So I'd rather to fix it before the continuous crash happen.
