arm64: Update 'unwinder howto'
Implementing a new unwinder is a bit more involved than writing a couple of helpers, so let's not lure the reader into a false sense of comfort. Instead, let's point out what they should call into, and what sort of parameter they need to provide.

* To implement a new arm64 stack unwinder:
|
||||
* 1) Include this header
|
||||
*
|
||||
* 2) Provide implementations for the following functions:
|
||||
* on_overflow_stack(): Returns true if SP is on the overflow
|
||||
* stack.
|
||||
* on_accessible_stack(): Returns true is SP is on any accessible
|
||||
* stack.
|
||||
* unwind_next(): Performs validation checks on the frame
|
||||
* pointer, and transitions unwind_state
|
||||
* to the next frame.
|
||||
* 2) Call into unwind_next_common() from your top level unwind
|
||||
* function, passing it the validation and translation callbacks
|
||||
* (though the later can be NULL if no translation is required).
|
||||
*
|
||||
* See: arch/arm64/include/asm/stacktrace.h for reference
|
||||
* implementations.
|
||||
* See: arch/arm64/kernel/stacktrace.c for the reference implementation.
