Commit Message

  When debugging a kernel hang during suspend/resume [1], there were random
memory corruptions in different places like being reported by
slub_debug+KASAN, or detected by scheduler with error message:

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

So dump the corrupted memory around the stack end to 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 ethernet driver
that it frees RX related memory back to kernel in suspend hook, but
its HW is not really stopped, and still send RX data to those old
buffer through DMA.
