Bug description:

      UBUNTU: [Config] CONFIG_UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER=y for amd64
      
      During the rebase to 4.15 UNWINDER_ORC was chosen as the stack
      unwinder as it promises a 5-10% performance improvement over
      using UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER. However it turns out to have a
      couple of downsides. It adds a new requierment for building dkms
      modules, and it does not produce the reliable stack traces
      required for livepatch. Switch back to UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER.
