Subject: [PATCH v3 01/15] stacktrace/x86: add function for detecting reliable stack traces

For live patching and possibly other use cases, a stack trace is only
useful if it can be assured that it's completely reliable.  Add a new
save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable() function to achieve that.

Scenarios which indicate that a stack trace may be unreliable:

- running task
- interrupt stack
- preemption
- corrupted stack data
- stack grows the wrong way
- stack walk doesn't reach the bottom
- user didn't provide a large enough entries array

Also add CONFIG_HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE so arch-independent code can
determine at build time whether the function is implemented.
