[PATCH] powerpc: make show_stack's stack walking KASAN-safe

[Daniel Axtens]

Make our stack-walking code KASAN-safe by using READ_ONCE_NOCHECK -
generic code, arm64, s390 and x86 all do this for similar sorts of
reasons: when unwinding a stack, we might touch memory that KASAN has
marked as being out-of-bounds. In ppc64 KASAN development, I hit this
sometimes when checking for an exception frame - because we're checking
an arbitrary offset into the stack frame.

See commit 20955746320e ("s390/kasan: avoid false positives during stack
unwind"), commit bcaf669b4bdb ("arm64: disable kasan when accessing
frame->fp in unwind_frame"), commit 91e08ab0c851 ("x86/dumpstack:
Prevent KASAN false positive warnings") and commit 6e22c8366416
("tracing, kasan: Silence Kasan warning in check_stack of stack_tracer").
