x86/stacktrace: return 0 instead of -1 for stack ops

Browse source 
If we return -1 in the ops->stack for the stacktrace saving, we end up
breaking out of the loop if the stack we are tracing is in the exception
stack. This causes traces like:

          <idle>-0     [002] 34263.745825: raise_softirq_irqoff <-__blk_complete_request
          <idle>-0     [002] 34263.745826:
 <= 0
 <= 0
 <= 0
 <= 0
 <= 0
 <= 0
 <= 0

By returning "0" instead, the irq stack is saved as well, and we see:

          <idle>-0     [003]   883.280992: raise_softirq_irqoff <-__hrtimer_star
t_range_ns
          <idle>-0     [003]   883.280992:
 <= hrtimer_start_range_ns
 <= tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick
 <= cpu_idle
 <= start_secondary
 <=
 <= 0
 <= 0
