[PATCH 2/7] stacktrace,sched: Make stack_trace_save_tsk() more robust

[Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>]

Recent patches to get_wchan() made it more robust by only doing the
unwind when the task was blocked and serialized against wakeups.

Extract this functionality as a simpler companion to task_call_func()
named task_try_func() that really only cares about blocked tasks. Then
employ this new function to implement the same robustness for
ARCH_STACKWALK based stack_trace_save_tsk().
