Isn't it this one?

There's a general bug where we have bogus '?' entries when tracing
through an exception frame, but I think we should fix that
generically.  I have a really ugly patch, and I think that fixing it
better is in Josh's queue.  If we fix it generically, then we get this
benefit everywhere in the kernel.

I'm not.  If %pF points at some silly helper, we still want the frames below it.
