2.6.26-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us
know.
------------------
From: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com>
commit 60e6258cd43f9b06884f04f0f7cefb9c40f17a32 upstream
It's possible for get_wchan() to dereference past task->stack + THREAD_SIZE
while iterating through instruction pointers if fp equals the upper boundary,
causing a kernel panic.
