Robert Richter 1022623842 x86-32: Fix invalid stack address while in softirq
In 32 bit the stack address provided by kernel_stack_pointer() may
point to an invalid range causing NULL pointer access or page faults
while in NMI (see trace below). This happens if called in softirq
context and if the stack is empty. The address at &regs->sp is then
out of range.

Fixing this by checking if regs and &regs->sp are in the same stack
context. Otherwise return the previous stack pointer stored in struct
thread_info. If that address is invalid too, return address of regs.

 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000a
