Subject: [PATCH v6 04/17] arm64: stacktrace: Handle frame pointer from different address spaces

The unwinder code is made reusable so that it can be used to
unwind various types of stacks. One usecase is unwinding the
nVHE hyp stack from the host (EL1) in non-protected mode. This
means that the unwinder must be able to translate HYP stack
addresses to kernel addresses.

Add a callback (stack_trace_translate_fp_fn) to allow specifying
the translation function.

with or without one very minor thing:

As a coding style nit I don't love having multiple assignments on a
single line especially as part of declarations.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for the reviews. I'll update this if a respin is needed.
