When compiling the latest i386 kernel from Linus's tree with CONFIG_STACK_UNWIND
defined, the following compilation error occurs:

CC arch/i386/kernel/traps.o
arch/i386/kernel/traps.c: In function ‘show_trace_log_lvl’:
arch/i386/kernel/traps.c:193: error: invalid type argument of ‘->’
arch/i386/kernel/traps.c:196: error: invalid type argument of ‘->’
arch/i386/kernel/traps.c:197: error: invalid type argument of ‘->’

Using git's bisect capability, the bad commit is

commit c97d20a6c51067a38f53680d9609b4cf2867d077

[PATCH] i386: Do backtrace fallback too

Similar patch to earlier x86-64 patch. When the dwarf2 unwinder fails
dump the left over stack with the old unwinder.

Also some clarifications in the headers.
