[PATCH 2/4] arm64: traps: Don't print stack or raw PC/LR values in backtraces

Printing raw pointer values in backtraces has potential security
implications and are of questionable value anyway.
This patch follows x86's lead and removes the "Exception stack:" dump
from kernel backtraces, as well as converting PC/LR values to symbols
such as "sysrq_handle_crash+0x20/0x30".
