Subject: x86: warning in unwind_get_return_address

Hi,

I've got the following warning while running the syzkaller fuzzer:

WARNING: unrecognized kernel stack return address ffffffffa0000001 at
ffff88006377fa18 in a.out:4467

By adding a BUG() to unwind_get_return_address() I was able to capture
the stack trace (see below). Looks like unwind_get_return_address()
gets called when KASAN tries to unwind the stack to save the stack
trace.

A reproducer is attached. CONFIG_KASAN=y is most likely needed for it to work.

On commit e93b1cc8a8965da137ffea0b88e5f62fa1d2a9e6 (Dec 19).
