Dmitry Vyukov reported the following using trinity and the memory
error detector AddressSanitizer
(https://code.google.com/p/address-sanitizer/wiki/AddressSanitizerForKernel).
[ 124.575597] ERROR: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow on

The address checks in the 64bit implementation of get_wchan() are
wrong in several ways:
- The lower bound of the stack is not the start of the stack
page. It's the start of the stack page plus sizeof (struct
thread_info)
- The upper bound must be:
top_of_stack - TOP_OF_KERNEL_STACK_PADDING - 2 * sizeof(unsigned long).
The 2 * sizeof(unsigned long) is required because the stack pointer
points at the frame pointer. The layout on the stack is: ... IP FP
... IP FP. So we need to make sure that both IP and FP are in the
bounds.
Fix the bound checks and get rid of the mix of numeric constants, u64
and unsigned long. Making all unsigned long allows us to use the same
function for 32bit as well.
Use READ_ONCE() when accessing the stack. This does not prevent a
concurrent wakeup of the task and the stack changing, but at least it
avoids TOCTOU.
Also check task state at the end of the loop. Again that does not
prevent concurrent changes, but it avoids walking for nothing.
Add proper comments while at it.
