Currently when interrupt arrives to cpu while in kernel context
INT_HANDLER macro (used for ext_int_handler and io_int_handler)
allocates new stack frame and pt_regs on the kernel stack and
sets up the backchain to jump over the pt_regs to the frame which has
been interrupted. This is not ideal to two reasons:
1. This hides the fact that kernel stack contains interrupt frame in it
and hence breaks arch_stack_walk_reliable(), which needs to know that to
guarantee "reliability" and checks that there are no pt_regs on the way.
2. It breaks the backchain unwinder logic, which assumes that the next
stack frame after an interrupt frame is reliable, while it is not.
In some cases (when r14 contains garbage) this leads to early unwinding
termination with an error, instead of marking frame as unreliable
and continuing.
To address that, only set backchain to 0.
