These changes need some fixing .. The "struct stack_trace"
infrastructure is based on CONFIG_STACKTRACE , so at least you would
want to ifdef your changes on that config options ..

I modified you patch to include the ifdefs,

ftp://source.mvista.com/pub/dwalker/misc/debug-preempt-5-levels-of-stack-frames.patch

The other problem I noticed is that the save_stack_trace(trace); seems
kind of heavy weight to be calling from inside add_preempt_count. If
your only going to a depth of 5 you could potentially use there macros,

#ifdef CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER
# ifndef CONFIG_ARM
#  define CALLER_ADDR0 ((unsigned long)__builtin_return_address(0))
#  define CALLER_ADDR1 ((unsigned long)__builtin_return_address(1))
#  define CALLER_ADDR2 ((unsigned long)__builtin_return_address(2))
#  define CALLER_ADDR3 ((unsigned long)__builtin_return_address(3))
#  define CALLER_ADDR4 ((unsigned long)__builtin_return_address(4))
#  define CALLER_ADDR5 ((unsigned long)__builtin_return_address(5))
# else
