[PATCH] ARM: fix the incorrect value of sp in __die()

The dump_mem() will output useless content that exceed the stack
in __die(), because sp will exceed the top of stack when the
CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y.

Insufficient stack space to handle exception!
Task stack:     [0xf09dc000..0xf09de000]
IRQ stack:      [0xf0800000..0xf0802000]
Overflow stack: [0xc210e000..0xc210f000]
Internal error: kernel stack overflow: 0 [#1] SMP ARM

So fix it by adding check for sp and modifying the value of sp
when sp exceed the top of stack.
