[Crash-utility] [PATCH v2] Fix kmem failing to print task context when address is vmalloced stack
When kernel enabled CONFIG_VMAP_STACK, stack can be allocated to
vmalloced area. Currently crash didn't handle the case, as a result,
kmem will not print the task context as expected. This patch fix the
bug by checking if the address is a vmalloced stack first.
