Subject: [PATCH 03/10] fault injection: allow FAULT_INJECTION_STACKTRACE_FILTER on X86_64

This config option was apparently disallowed on x86_64 because of
problems with the stack unwinder:

    commit 6d690dcac92a84f98fd774862628ff871b713660
    Author: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@...il.com>
    Date:   Sat May 12 10:36:53 2007 -0700

        fault injection: disable stacktrace filter for x86-64

However, I observe no problems whatsoever with this today and in fact
it's been very useful for debugging. Let's allow it again.
