Subject: [PATCH] arm64: backtrace: Don't bother trying to unwind the userspace stack
Date: Mon,  8 Apr 2019 18:12:37 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190408171237.12045-1-will.deacon@arm.com> (raw)

Calling dump_backtrace() with a pt_regs argument corresponding to
userspace doesn't make any sense and our unwinder will simply print
"Call trace:" before unwinding the stack looking for user frames.

Rather than go through this song and dance, just return early if we're
passed a user register state.

Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org>
Fixes: 1149aad10b1e ("arm64: Add dump_backtrace() in show_regs")
