[Crash-utility] [PATCH] ARM: Fix idle task stack unwinding on Thumb-2 kernels

ARM kernels built with the Thumb-2 instruction need R7 instead of FP for
unwinding stacks using the DWARF unwinder.

On a Thumb-2 kernel:

Before:
crash> bt 1
PID: 1      TASK: ee7e0000  CPU: 1   COMMAND: "systemd-shutdow"

After:
crash> bt 1
PID: 1      TASK: ee7e0000  CPU: 1   COMMAND: "systemd-shutdow"
 #0 [<805587a1>] (__schedule) from [<80558d2b>]
 #1 [<80558d2b>] (schedule) from [<8055c8bb>]
 #2 [<8055c8bb>] (schedule_hrtimeout_range_clock) from [<8055c937>]
 #3 [<8055c937>] (schedule_hrtimeout_range) from [<8012cbdf>]
 #4 [<8012cbdf>] (sys_rt_sigtimedwait) from [<80107259>]
