MIPS: show_stack: Fix stack trace with EVA The show_stack() function deals exclusively with kernel contexts, but if it gets called in user context with EVA enabled, show_stacktrace() will attempt to access the stack using EVA accesses, which will either read other user mapped data, or more likely cause an exception which will be handled by __get_user(). This is easily reproduced using SysRq t to show all task states, which results in the following stack dump output: Stack : (Bad stack address) Fix by setting the current user access mode to kernel around the call to show_stacktrace(). This causes __get_user() to use normal loads to read the kernel stack. Now we get the correct output, like this: Stack : 00000000 80168960 00000000 004a0000 00000000 00000000 8060016c 1f3abd0c 1f172cd8 8056f09c 7ff1e450 8014fc3c 00000001 806dd0b0 0000001d 00000002 1f17c6a0 1f17c804 1f17c6a0 8066f6e0 00000000 0000000a 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 0110e800 1f3abd6c 1f17c6a0 ...
