Dmitry Vyukov 75edb54a1d x86: Fix KASAN false positives in thread_saved_pc()
thread_saved_pc() reads stack of a potentially running task.
This can cause false KASAN stack-out-of-bounds reports,
because the running task concurrently poisons and unpoisons
own stack.

The same happens in get_wchan(), and get get_wchan() was fixed
by using READ_ONCE_NOCHECK(). Do the same here.

Example KASAN report triggered by sysrq-t:

  BUG: KASAN: out-of-bounds in sched_show_task+0x306/0x3b0 at addr ffff880043c97c18
