Thanks for doing this.

Hmm, but that wouldn't catch the case when the SP is completely

Maybe it would be better to just run a brute force check here like 
the old in_exception_stack(). Similar on x86-64.

Would it be possible to add printks for the EIOs? We want to know 
when dwarf2 is corrupted.
