[PATCH v4 14/16] x86/dumpstack/64: Handle faults when printing the "Stack:" part of an OOPS

Show all headers | View raw

If we overflow the stack into a guard page, we'll recursively fault
when trying to dump the contents of the guard page.  Use
probe_kernel_address so we can recover if this happens.
