Subject: [PATCH v1 4/4] powerpc: Fix arch_stack_walk() to have running
 function as first entry

It seems like other architectures, namely x86 and arm64 and riscv
at least, include the running function as top entry when saving
stack trace with save_stack_trace_regs().

Functionnalities like KFENCE expect it.

Do the same on powerpc, it allows KFENCE and other users to
properly identify the faulting function as depicted below.
Before the patch KFENCE was identifying finish_task_switch.isra
as the faulting function.
