Subject: [PATCH for v4.6] lib/stackdepot: avoid to return 0 handle

From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@....com>

Recently, we allow to save the stacktrace whose hashed value is 0.
It causes the problem that stackdepot could return 0 even if in success.
User of stackdepot cannot distinguish whether it is success or not so we
need to solve this problem. In this patch, 1 bit are added to handle
and make valid handle none 0 by setting this bit. After that, valid handle
will not be 0 and 0 handle will represent failure correctly.

Fixes: 33334e25769c ("lib/stackdepot.c: allow the stack trace hash
to be zero")
