Subject: [PATCH 5.0 094/117] arm64: backtrace: Dont bother trying to unwind the userspace stack

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@....com>

commit 1e6f5440a6814d28c32d347f338bfef68bc3e69d upstream.

Calling dump_backtrace() with a pt_regs argument corresponding to
userspace doesn't make any sense and our unwinder will simply print
"Call trace:" before unwinding the stack looking for user frames.

Rather than go through this song and dance, just return early if we're
passed a user register state.

Cc: <stable@...r.kernel.org>
Fixes: 1149aad10b1e ("arm64: Add dump_backtrace() in show_regs")
