While unwinding backtrace, stack overflow is possible. This stack overflow can sometimes
lead to data abort in system if the area after stack is not mapped to physical memory.

To prevent this problem from happening execute the instructions that can cause data
abort in there seperate functions instead of unwind_exec_insn, where a check for there
feasibility is made first.
