Subject: [PATCH] riscv: stacktrace: Fix NULL pointer dereference

From: Jisheng Zhang <jszhang@...nel.org>

When CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y, calling dump_stack() can always trigger
NULL pointer dereference panic similar as below:

The reason is the task is NULL when we finally call walk_stackframe()
the NULL is passed from __dump_stack():

|static void __dump_stack(void)
|{
|        dump_stack_print_info(KERN_DEFAULT);
|        show_stack(NULL, NULL, KERN_DEFAULT);
|}

Fix this issue by checking "task == NULL" case in walk_stackframe().
