Why record task_work_add() call stack?
Syzbot reports many use-after-free issues for task_work, see [1].
After see the free stack and the current auxiliary stack, we think
they are useless, we don't know where register the work, this work
may be the free call stack, so that we miss the root cause and
don't solve the use-after-free.

Add task_work_add() call stack into KASAN auxiliary stack in
order to improve KASAN report. It is useful for programmers
to solve use-after-free issues.
