Eiichi Tsukata cbf5b73d16 x86/stacktrace: Prevent infinite loop in arch_stack_walk_user()
arch_stack_walk_user() checks `if (fp == frame.next_fp)` to prevent a
infinite loop by self reference but it's not enogh for circular reference.

Once a lack of return address is found, there is no point to continue the
loop, so break out.

Fixes: 02b67518e2 ("tracing: add support for userspace stacktraces in tracing/iter_ctrl")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
