nit:

I think you're looking more for comments on the approach and the
correctness of these patches, but from an initial read I'm still
putting it all together in my head. So this comment is on the coding
style.

The above loop seems to check the current reliability state, then
unwind a frame then check the reliability, and then break based of
something which couldn't have been updated by the line immediately
above. I propose something like:

unwind(...) {
	ret = 0;

	while (!ret) {
		if (need_reliable) {
			unwind_check_reliable(state);
			if (!state->reliable)
				return -EINVAL;
		}
		if (!consume_entry(cookie, state->pc))
			return -EINVAL;
		ret = unwind_next(state);
	}

	return ret;
}

This also removes the need for the call to unwind_check_reliable()
before the first unwind() below in arch_stack_walk_reliable().
