The dwarf unwinder ties in to an early initcall, but it's possible that
return_address() calls will be made prior to that. This implements some
additional error handling in to the dwarf unwinder as well as an exit
path in the return_address() case to bail out if the unwinder hasn't come
up yet.This fixes a NULL pointer deref in early boot when mempool_alloc() blows
up on the not-yet-ready mempool via dwarf_unwind_stack().Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt

This is needed with some of the tracing code built as modules, so provide
the export.Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt

This splits out the unwinder implementation and adds a new
return_address() abstraction modelled after the ARM code. The DWARF
unwinder is tied in to this, returning NULL otherwise in the case of
being unable to support arbitrary depths.This enables us to get correct behaviour with the unwinder enabled,
as well as disabling the arbitrary depth support when frame pointers are
enabled, as arbitrary depths with __builtin_return_address() are not
supported regardless.With this abstraction it's also possible to layer on a simplified
implementation with frame pointers in the event that the unwinder isn't
enabled, although this is left as a future exercise.Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt
