The functions it guards are dead code. Worse, while intended to exist in
debug builds only, as of commit bacbf0cb7349 ("build: convert debug to
Kconfig") they also get compiled in release builds.

The remaining uses in show_stack_overflow() aren't really related to any
memory guarding anymore - with CET-SS support the stacks now get set up
the same in debug and release builds. Use CONFIG_DEBUG there instead.

Looking at these, I think we'd be better dropping the ifdef and
compiling it in unconditionally.

This is only used in the #DF path, which is a fatal error path. 
Throwing away information we trivially have to hand is actively
unhelpful to whomever is analysing the logs.

Preferably with the ifdefary dropped, Reviewed-by: Andrew Cooper
