[RFC][PATCH] PAGE_OWNER now depends on STACKTRACE_SUPPORT

[Dave Hansen]

One of the enhancements I made to the PAGE_OWNER code was to make
it use the generic stack trace support.  However, there are some
architectures that do not support it, like m68k.  So, make
PAGE_OWNER also depend on having STACKTRACE_SUPPORT.

This isn't ideal since it restricts the number of places
PAGE_OWNER runs now, but it at least hits all the major
architectures.

config: make ARCH=m68k allmodconfig

All warnings:

warning: (PAGE_OWNER && STACK_TRACER && BLK_DEV_IO_TRACE && KMEMCHECK) selects STACKTRACE which has unmet direct dependencies (STACKTRACE_SUPPORT)
