Subject: [PATCH 5.19 0150/1157] arm64: stacktrace: use non-atomic __set_bit

From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@...gle.com>

[ Upstream commit 446297b28a21244e4045026c4599d1b14a67e2ce ]

Use the non-atomic version of set_bit() in arch/arm64/kernel/stacktrace.c,
as there is no concurrent accesses to frame->prev_type.

This speeds up stack trace collection and improves the boot time of
Generic KASAN by 2-5%.
