ARM: 9234/1: stacktrace: Avoid duplicate saving of exception PC value

Because an exception stack frame is not created in the exception entry,
save_trace() does special handling for the exception PC, but this is
only needed when CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER_UNWIND=y. When
CONFIG_ARM_UNWIND=y, unwind annotations have been added to the exception
entry and save_trace() will repeatedly save the exception PC:

    [0x7f000090] hrtimer_hander+0x8/0x10 [hrtimer]
    [0x8019ec50] __hrtimer_run_queues+0x18c/0x394
    [0x8019f760] hrtimer_run_queues+0xbc/0xd0
    [0x8019def0] update_process_times+0x34/0x80
    [0x801ad2a4] tick_periodic+0x48/0xd0
    [0x801ad3dc] tick_handle_periodic+0x1c/0x7c
    [0x8010f2e0] twd_handler+0x30/0x40
    [0x80177620] handle_percpu_devid_irq+0xa0/0x23c
    [0x801718d0] generic_handle_domain_irq+0x24/0x34
    [0x80502d28] gic_handle_irq+0x74/0x88
    [0x8085817c] generic_handle_arch_irq+0x58/0x78
    [0x80100ba8] __irq_svc+0x88/0xc8
    [0x80108114] arch_cpu_idle+0x38/0x3c
    [0x80108114] arch_cpu_idle+0x38/0x3c    <==== duplicate saved exception PC
    [0x80861bf8] default_idle_call+0x38/0x130
    [0x8015d5cc] do_idle+0x150/0x214
    [0x8015d978] cpu_startup_entry+0x18/0x1c
    [0x808589c0] rest_init+0xd8/0xdc
    [0x80c00a44] arch_post_acpi_subsys_init+0x0/0x8

We can move the special handling of the exception PC in save_trace() to
the unwind_frame() of the frame pointer unwinder.
