With support for HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RET_ADDR_PTR,
ftrace_graph_ret_addr() provides more robust unwinding when function
graph is in use. Update show_stack() to use the same.

With dump_stack() added to sysrq_sysctl_handler(), before this patch:

History
Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
