sh: Don't continue unwinding across interrupts
Unfortunately, due to poor DWARF info in current toolchains, unwinding through interrutps cannot be done reliably. The problem is that the DWARF info for function epilogues is wrong. Take this standard epilogue sequence, 80003cc4: e3 6f mov r14,r15 80003cc6: 26 4f lds.l @r15+,pr 80003cc8: f6 6e mov.l @r15+,r14 <---- interrupt here 80003cca: f6 6b mov.l @r15+,r11 80003ccc: f6 6a mov.l @r15+,r10 80003cce: f6 69 mov.l @r15+,r9 80003cd0: 0b 00 rts If we take an interrupt at the highlighted point, the DWARF info will bogusly claim that the return address can be found at some offset from the frame pointer, even though the frame pointer was just restored. The worst part is if the unwinder finds a text address at the bogus stack address - unwinding will continue, for a bit, until it finally comes across an unexpected address on the stack and blows up. The only solution is to stop unwinding once we've calculated the function that was executing when the interrupt occurred. This PC can be easily calculated from pt_regs->pc.
