Subject: [PATCH v10 06/11] arm64: Make profile_pc() use arch_stack_walk()

From: "Madhavan T. Venkataraman" <redacted>

Currently, profile_pc() in ARM64 code walks the stack using
start_backtrace() and unwind_frame(). Make it use arch_stack_walk() instead. This makes maintenance easier.

I've got build error with CONFIG_ACPI=n:
====
arch/arm64/kernel/time.c: In function 'profile_pc':
arch/arm64/kernel/time.c:52:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'arch_stack_walk' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
   52 |  arch_stack_walk(profile_pc_cb, &prof_pc, current, regs);

I think it should include <linux/stacktrace.h> instead of <asm/stacktrace.h>.
OK. I will fix this.
Thanks for catching this.
