[PATCH] avoid out of bounds array reference in save_trace()

[Luck, Tony]

ia64 found this the hard way (because we currently have a stub for
save_stack_trace() that does nothing). But it would be a good idea to 
be cautious in case a real save_stack_trace() bailed out with an
error before it set trace->nr_entries.
