Subject: [PATCH v10 06/11] arm64: Make profile_pc() use arch_stack_walk()

From: "Madhavan T. Venkataraman" <madvenka@...ux.microsoft.com>

Currently, profile_pc() in ARM64 code walks the stack using
start_backtrace() and unwind_frame(). Make it use arch_stack_walk()
instead. This makes maintenance easier.
