Again this code will (probably) be obsolete soon.  And another quote
from my previous review:

  So how about we change save_stack_trace() to use print_context_stack()
  for CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=n and print_context_stack_bp() for
  CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y?  That would preserve the existing behavior, no?
