This function could become part of stackdepot itself?

Hmm, in case stack_depot_save() fails and returns a zero handle (e.g. due to
enomem) this seems to rely on stack_depot_fetch() returning gracefully with
zero nr_entries for a zero handle. But I don't see such guarantee?
stack_depot_init() isn't creating such entry and stack_depot_save() doesn't
have such check. So it will work accidentally, or return garbage? But it
would be IMHO useful to add such guarantee to stackdepot one way or another.
