x86/unwinder: Handle stack overflows more gracefully
There are at least two unwinder bugs hindering the debugging of
stack-overflow crashes:
- It doesn't deal gracefully with the case where the stack overflows and
the stack pointer itself isn't on a valid stack but the
to-be-dereferenced data *is*.
- The ORC oops dump code doesn't know how to print partial pt_regs, for the
case where if we get an interrupt/exception in *early* entry code
before the full pt_regs have been saved.
Fix both issues.
