just an idea for further improvement (and it might be a matter of taste). 
Yeah, there's some more stuff that can be done - the reason I'm looking
at this code is to do reliable stack trace which is going to require at
least some changes to the actual unwinder, this just seemed like a
useful block moving things forwards in itself and I particularly wanted
feedback on patch 1.
Understood. Reliable stack traces would be an important step for live 
patching on arm64, so I am looking forward to seeing that.

Thanks
Miroslav
