The ppc64le implementation of save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable() is

And what's the in tree module user of this? I can't find one and just
because PPC has an export with no user is not a convincing argument to add
another one. The proper solution is to remove the unused PPC export.
Good point.
For that matter, I do see in-tree modules making use of
save_stack_trace, but who is calling save_stack_trace_tsk (exported by
most arches) and save_stack_trace_regs (exported by openrisc, powerpc,
s390)?
Well, at least for save_stack_trace_tsk there is the out-of-tree kpatch
core module[1]. (Kpatch drops that call if the kernel provides
livepatch functionality.)
