  When debugging a kernel hang during suspend/resume, there are random
memory corruptions in different places like being detected by scheduler
with error message:

  "Kernel panic - not syncing: corrupted stack end detected inside scheduler"

Dump the corrupted memory around the stack end will give more direct
hints about how the memory is corrupted:

 "
 Corrupted Stack: ff11000122770000: ff ff ff ff ff ff 14 91 82 3b 78 e8 08 00 45 00  .........;x...E.
 Corrupted Stack: ff11000122770010: 00 1d 2a ff 40 00 40 11 98 c8 0a ef 30 2c 0a ef  ..*.@.@.....0,..
 Corrupted Stack: ff11000122770020: 30 ff a2 00 22 3d 00 09 9a 95 2a 00 00 00 00 00  0..."=....*.....
 ...
 Kernel panic - not syncing: corrupted stack end detected inside scheduler
 "

And with it, the culprit was quickly identified to be an ethernet
driver with its DMA operations.
