arm64: Export save_stack_trace_tsk()
The kernel watchdog is a great debugging tool for finding tasks that consume a disproportionate amount of CPU time in contiguous chunks. One can imagine building a similar watchdog for arbitrary driver threads using save_stack_trace_tsk() and print_stack_trace(). However, this is not viable for dynamically loaded driver modules on ARM platforms because save_stack_trace_tsk() is not exported for those architectures. Export save_stack_trace_tsk() for the ARM64 architecture to align with x86 and support various debugging use cases such as arbitrary driver thread watchdog timers.
