This is conflating the reliable stacktrace checks (which your series
will later flag up with frame->reliable) with verifying that we found
the bottom of the stack by looking for this terminal stack frame record.
For the purposes of determining if the unwinder got to the bottom of the
stack we don't care what stack type we're looking at, we just care if it
managed to walk to this defined final record.  

At the minute nothing except reliable stack trace has any intention of
checking the specific return code but it's clearer to be consistent.
