OK. handler name changed. For the space between cast, it looks like
there are different styles in the code base, either with or without.
I dropped the space since I don't have strong opinion one way or the
other.

Also wrap proc_pid_stack() inside CONFIG_STACKTRACE to fix compile
time error when config option is not selected.
