LoongArch: Fix unreliable stack for live patching
When testing the kernel live patching with "modprobe livepatch-sample", there is a timeout over 15 seconds from "starting patching transition" to "patching complete". The dmesg command shows "unreliable stack" for user tasks in debug mode, here is one of the messages: livepatch: klp_try_switch_task: bash:1193 has an unreliable stack The "unreliable stack" is because it can not unwind from do_syscall() to its previous frame handle_syscall(). It should use fp to find the original stack top due to secondary stack in do_syscall(), but fp is not used for some other functions, then fp can not be restored by the next frame of do_syscall(), so it is necessary to save fp if task is not current, in order to get the stack top of do_syscall(). Here are the call chains: klp_enable_patch() klp_try_complete_transition() klp_try_switch_task() klp_check_and_switch_task() klp_check_stack() stack_trace_save_tsk_reliable() arch_stack_walk_reliable() When executing "rmmod livepatch-sample", there exists a similar issue. With this patch, it takes a short time for patching and unpatching.
