[PATCH v2] kdump: Fix gdb macros work work with newer and 64-bit kernels

From: Corey Minyard <cminyard at mvista.com>

Lots of little changes needed to be made to clean these up, remove the
four byte pointer assumption and traverse the pid queue properly.
Also consolidate the traceback code into a single function instead
of having three copies of it.

Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard <cminyard at mvista.com>

Changes since v1:

Rename btthreadstruct to btthreadstack

Use sizeof(union thread_union) for the stack size instead of a hardcoded
4096.
