*	[ARM] 5558/1: Add extra checks to ARM unwinder to avoid tracing corrupt stacks	Catalin Marinas	2009-06-19
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	There are situations where the unwinder goes beyond stack boundaries and unwinds random data. This patch moves the stack boundaries check after the unwind_exec_insn() call and adds an extra check for possible infinite loops (like "mov pc, lr" with pc == lr). The patch also fixes a bug in the unwind instructions interpreter. The 0xb0 instruction can only set PC to LR if this wasn't already set by a previous instruction (this is used on exceptions taken while in kernel mode where svc_entry is annotated with ".save {r0 - pc}").

*	[ARM] 5383/2: unwind: Add core support for ARM stack unwinding	Catalin Marinas	2009-02-19
	This patch adds the main functionality for parsing the stack unwinding information generated by the ARM EABI toolchains. The unwinding information consists of an index with a pair of words per function and a table with unwinding instructions.
