Subject: [PATCH] x86/unwind: fix guess unwinder regression

My attempt at fixing some KASAN false positive warnings was rather brain
dead, and it broke the guess unwinder.  With frame pointers disabled,
/proc/<pid>/stack is broken:

  # cat /proc/1/stack
  [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff

Restore the code flow to more closely resemble its previous state, while
still using READ_ONCE_NOCHECK macros to silence KASAN false positives.

Fixes: c2d75e03d630 ("x86/unwind: Prevent KASAN false positive warnings in guess unwinder")
