Subject: [PATCH][GIT PULL] x86_32: Return actual stack when requesting sp
from regs
Ingo, Peter,
I posted this back in July as an RFC and did get Masami's reviewed-by
tag. I'm currently cleaning out my inbox and realized I didn't push this
further. I didn't know which branch to base this on, so I just picked
the tip/x86/asm branch where I did my last x86 work in.

x86_32: Return actual stack when requesting sp from regs
As x86_32 traps do not save sp when taken in kernel mode, we need to
accommodate the sp when requesting to get the register.
This affects kprobes.

# echo 1 > /debug/tracing/events/kprobes/enable
