Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 3.18 14/41] ARM: 8840/1: use a raw_spinlock_t in unwind

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@...utronix.de>

[ Upstream commit 74ffe79ae538283bbf7c155e62339f1e5c87b55a ]

Mostly unwind is done with irqs enabled however SLUB may call it with
irqs disabled while creating a new SLUB cache.

I had system freeze while loading a module which called
kmem_cache_create() on init. That means SLUB's __slab_alloc() disabled
interrupts and then

->new_slab_objects()
 ->new_slab()
  ->setup_object()
   ->setup_object_debug()
    ->init_tracking()
     ->set_track()
      ->save_stack_trace()
       ->save_stack_trace_tsk()
        ->walk_stackframe()
         ->unwind_frame()
          ->unwind_find_idx()
           =>spin_lock_irqsave(&unwind_lock);
