From 2a2bcfa0c94d8bc4770676a6799928036296c037 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Wed, 10 Apr 2019 12:27:57 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] arm/stacktrace: Remove the pointless ULONG_MAX marker Terminating the last trace entry with ULONG_MAX is a completely pointless exercise and none of the consumers can rely on it because it's inconsistently implemented across architectures. In fact quite some of the callers remove the entry and adjust stack_trace.nr_entries afterwards.
