Revert "x86/unwind: Detect bad stack return address"
Revert the following commit:
b6959a362177 ("x86/unwind: Detect bad stack return address")
... because Andrey Konovalov reported an unwinder warning:
WARNING: unrecognized kernel stack return address ffffffffa0000001 at ffff88006377fa18 in a.out:4467
The unwind was initiated from an interrupt which occurred while running in the
generated code for a kprobe. The unwinder printed the warning because it
expected regs->ip to point to a valid text address, but instead it pointed to
the generated code.
Eventually we may want come up with a way to identify generated kprobe
code so the unwinder can know that it's a valid return address. Until
then, just remove the warning.
