From: Ronald Wahl <ronald.wahl@raritan.com>
I encountered a crash on ARM32 when trying to dump the stack of some
zombie process. This is caused by a missing check whether the task
actually has a valid stack. This commit adds this check.
Commit 214d8ca6ee85 ("stacktrace: Provide common infrastructure")
introduced this check for platforms that define CONFIG_ARCH_STACKWALK
but ARM32 is not one of them.
