x86/unwind: Ensure stack pointer is aligned
With frame pointers disabled, on some older versions of GCC (like 4.8.3), it's possible for the stack pointer to get aligned at a half-word boundary: 00000000000004d0 <fib_table_lookup>: 4d0: 41 57 push %r15 4d2: 41 56 push %r14 4d4: 41 55 push %r13 4d6: 41 54 push %r12 4d8: 55 push %rbp 4d9: 53 push %rbx 4da: 48 83 ec 24 sub $0x24,%rsp In such a case, the unwinder ends up reading the entire stack at the wrong alignment. Then the last read goes past the end of the stack, hitting the stack guard page: BUG: stack guard page was hit at ffffc900217c4000 (stack is ffffc900217c0000..ffffc900217c3fff) kernel stack overflow (page fault): 0000 [#1] SMP ... Fix it by ensuring the stack pointer is properly aligned before unwinding.
