[IA64] Only unwind non-running tasks.
Unwinding a running task has proven problematic. In one instance, the running task was attempting to unwind itself and received an interrupt between when get_wchan allocated local variables on the stack and when unw_init_from_blocked_task was called which resulted in unw_init_frame_info to place this tasks task_struct pointer over the switch stack's ar_bspstore entry.
