x86: don't save unreliable stack trace entries
Currently, there is no way for print_stack_trace() to determine whether
a given stack trace entry was deemed reliable or not, simply because
save_stack_trace() does not record this information. (Perhaps needless
to say, this makes the saved stack traces A LOT harder to read, and
probably with no other benefits, since debugging features that use
save_stack_trace() most likely also require frame pointers, etc.)
This patch reverts to the old behaviour of only recording the reliable trace
entries for saved stack traces.
