3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 87889501d0adfae10e3b0f0e6f2d7536eed9ae84 upstream. Use the stack of stack_trace_call() instead of check_stack() as the test pointer for max stack size. It makes it a bit cleaner and a little more accurate. Adding stable, as a later fix depends on this patch.
