arm64 has another layer of indirection in the RTL.
Account for this in the plugin.

Like most kernel developers, I don't know the first thing about GCC internals
so I asked our GCC team and Richard (CC'd) reckons this should be:

	if (GET_CODE(body) == PARALLEL)
		body = XVECEXP(body, 0, 0);

instead of the hunk above. Can you give that a go instead, please?
Thanks a lot!

Would you be so kind to take a look at the whole STACKLEAK plugin?

It's not very big. I documented it in detail. I would be really grateful for the
review!

Best regards,
Alexander
