[PATCH] [23/45] i386: Make callgraph use dump_trace() on i386/x86_64

[Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>]

From: jblunck@suse.de
This patch improves oprofile callgraphs for i386/x86_64. The old backtracing
code was unable to produce even kernel backtraces if the kernel wasn't
compiled with framepointers. The code now uses dump_trace().

- * processor does not save %esp on the kernel stack when interrupts occur
- * in the kernel mode.
