x86/dumpstack: Fix interrupt and exception stack boundary checks

jpoimboe · Ingo Molnar · commit 5a3cf86978a1 · 2017-07-18T10:56:23.000+02:00
On x86_64, the double fault exception stack is located immediately after the interrupt stack in memory. This causes confusion in the unwinder when it tries to unwind through an empty interrupt stack, where the stack pointer points to the address bordering the two stacks. The unwinder incorrectly thinks it's running on the double fault stack. Fix this kind of stack border confusion by never considering the beginning address of an exception or interrupt stack to be part of the stack.
