The unwinder expects the last frame on the stack to always be at the
same offset from the end of the page, which allows it to validate the
stack.  Calling schedule_tail() directly breaks that convention because
its an asmlinkage function so its argument has to be pushed on the
stack.  Add a wrapper which creates a proper "end of stack" frame header
before the call.
