Subject: [099/117] sparc64: Use kstack_valid() in die_if_kernel().

2.6.33-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------


From: David S. Miller <davem@...emloft.net>

[ Upstream commit cb256aa60409efd803806cfb0528a4b3f8397dba ]

This gets rid of a local function (is_kernel_stack()) which tries to
do the same thing, yet poorly in that it doesn't handle IRQ stacks
properly.
