Isn't that what FRAME_META_TYPE_PT_REGS is for?

Maybe it can just tell kunwind_stack_walk() to set a bit in
kunwind_state which tells kunwind_next_frame_record_meta() to quit the
unwind early for the FRAME_META_TYPE_PT_REGS case.  That also has the
benefit of stopping the unwind as soon as the exception is encounterd.
