From: Rohit Thapliyal <r.thapliyal at samsung.com>

On 64bit kernel, the dump_mem gives 32 bit addresses
on the stack dump. This gives unorganized information regarding
the 64bit values on the stack. Hence, modified to get a complete
64bit memory dump.

With patch:
Process insmod (pid: 1587, stack limit = 0xffffffc976be4058)
Stack: (0xffffffc976be7cf0 to 0xffffffc976be8000)
