Pointer authentication support is added in the recent versions of the arm64
kernel. This basically add PAC bits to the top unused bits of the lr
register in the stack to prevent ROP kind of attack.
However the presence of PAC bits fails to match with the correct symbol
name. Hence a KERNELPACMASK field is added in the vmcoreinfo to help
in masking out this PAC details.
This patch fetches the KERNELPACMASK info and use it to mask the PAC bits
and generate correct backtrace and symbol name.

Changes sice v2:
* Removed PAC mask check from arm64_is_kernel_exception_frame function
* More details in commit.
Changes since v1:
* Moved PAC mask code from arm64_print_stackframe_entry to
arm64_unwind_frame.
* PAC mask check on all kernel text during complete stack parsing
with bt -t <pid> command.
* dump_machdep_table now prints CONFIG_ARM64_KERNELPACMASK.
The kernel version for the corresponding vmcoreinfo entry is posted here[1].
