Subject: [PATCH 8/9] stacktrace: implement save_stack_trace_quick()

Implement save_stack_trace_quick() which only considers the usual
contexts (ie. thread and irq) and doesn't handle links between
different contexts - if %current is in irq context, only backtrace in
the irq stack is considered.

This is subset of dump_trace() done in much simpler way.  It's
intended to be used in hot paths where the overhead of dump_trace()
can be too heavy.
