Subject: [PATCH 4/6] powerpc64/bpf: Add arch_bpf_stack_walk() for BPF JIT

From: Abhishek Dubey <adubey@...ux.ibm.com>

This function is used by bpf_throw() to unwind the stack
until frame of exception-boundary during BPF exception
handling.

This function is necessary to support BPF exceptions on
PowerPC.
