That will start walking the stack in the middle of the thread_info
struct.
I think you meant:
stack = (unsigned long *)(tinfo + 1)
However, thread_info will have been overwritten anyway. So maybe it
should just be:
stack = tinfo;
(Though that still wouldn't quite work because the valid_stack_ptr()
check would fail...)
