Both rp_loc and pfs_loc can be in the register stack area _or_ they can
be in the memory stack area, the latter occurs when a struct pt_regs is
pushed.  Correct the validation check on these fields to check for both
stack areas.  Not allowing for memory stack locations means no
backtrace past ia64_leave_kernel, or any other code that uses
PT_REGS_UNWIND_INFO.
