This patch will export the validate_sp() function (part of dump_stack
code).
I am developers for the systemtap project:
http://sourceware.org/systemtap/
The SystemTap runtime includes a function for capturing a stack trace as
a string.  For the ppc64 port, we need to have the validate_sp()
function exported so it is accessible to our stack-trace function, which
is part of a SystemTap-generated kernel module.
This patch should apply to kernel 2.6.14-rc5-mm1.
Thanks, Hien.
