Would it make sense to use this in s390 and powerpc reliable unwinders?
Both
arch/s390/kernel/stacktrace.c:arch_stack_walk_reliable()
arch/powerpc/kernel/stacktrace.c:__save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable()
have
if (state.ip == (unsigned long)kretprobe_trampoline)
return -EINVAL;
which you wanted to hide previously if I am not mistaken.
