m68k: Fix backtraces for non-running tasks

Browse source

When no stack pointer is supplied, show_stack() starts at thread.esp0.
This is the saved userspace register frame, not where a task was switched
out. For kernel threads it points to the zeroed frame created by
copy_thread(), so sched_show_task() prints no useful backtrace.

Use thread.ksp for non-current tasks. It is saved by switch_to() and is
already used by __get_wchan(). For current, start at the current stack
frame, as is already done when no task is supplied.

Tested on qemu-system-m68k -M virt using SysRq-t. All task dumps contained
resolved frames.
