This reverts commit b6959a362177 ("x86/unwind: Detect bad stack return
address").

Andrey Konovalov reported an unwinder warning:

  WARNING: unrecognized kernel stack return address ffffffffa0000001 at 
ffff88006377fa18 in a.out:4467

The unwind was initiated from an interrupt which occurred while running in the
generated code for a kprobe.  The unwinder printed the warning because it
expected regs->ip to point to a valid text address, but instead it pointed to
the generated code.

Eventually we may want come up with a way to identify generated kprobe
code so the unwinder can know that it's a valid return address.  Until
then, just remove the warning.
