These routines are called by the tracer code. Now that they're functions, if they are compiled for function tracing they will call the tracer and crash the system due to infinite recursion. The fix disables tracing in these functions by using "notrace" in the function definition.

This happens if called in softirq context and if the stack is empty. The address at &regs->sp is then out of range. Fixing this by checking if regs and &regs->sp are in the same stack context. Otherwise return the previous stack pointer stored in struct thread_info. If that address is invalid too, return address of regs.
