From: Behan Webster <behanw at converseincode.com>
Use the frame pointer to calculate the start of the stack for current_thread_info()
The existing code uses the stack pointer to do this calculation.
Using the frame pointer yeilds the same value in a portable way.
This change supports being able to compile the kernel with gcc and Clang.
