x86/unwind: Fix last frame check for aligned function stacks

Pavel Machek reported the following warning on x86-32:

WARNING: kernel stack frame pointer at f50cdf98 in swapper/2:0 has bad value (null)

The warning is caused by the unwinder not realizing that it reached the
end of the stack, due to an unusual prologue which gcc sometimes
generates for aligned stacks. The prologue is based on a gcc feature
called the Dynamic Realign Argument Pointer (DRAP). It's almost always
enabled for aligned stacks when -maccumulate-outgoing-args isn't set.

This issue is similar to the one fixed by the following commit:

8023e0e2a48d ("x86/unwind: Adjust last frame check for aligned function stacks")

... but that fix was specific to x86-64.

Make the fix more generic to cover x86-32 as well, and also ensure that
the return address referred to by the frame pointer is a copy of the
original return address.
