It seems like other architectures, namely x86 and arm64 and riscv at least, include the running function as top entry when saving stack trace with save_stack_trace_regs(). Functionnalities like KFENCE expect it. Do the same on powerpc, it allows KFENCE and other users to properly identify the faulting function as depicted below. Before the patch KFENCE was identifying finish_task_switch.isra as the faulting function.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
