PATCH 1/1 Fix of stack dump in {SOFT|HARD}IRQs

This patch fixes incorrect check for stack ptr in show_trace()->valid_stack_ptr(). When called from hardirq/softirq show_trace() prints "Stack pointer is garbage, not printing trace" message instead of call traces.

This patch fixes incorrect check for stack ptr in show_trace()->valid_stack_ptr(). When called from hardirq/softirq show_trace() prints "Stack pointer is garbage, not printing trace" message instead of call traces.

Thanks for fixing that up.

In future, please ensure that patches are in `patch -p1' form, as described in http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/tpp.txt.

And please don't declare external functions in .c files - it defeats compiler typechecking. I'll use the below fixup for that.
