1. What is 'g' in 'greg'?

2. Perhaps you could reduce number of #ifdef-#endif
if you would define struct crash_greg as an empty
struct for all the other platforms. Then you wouldn't
need the TARGET_OS_LINUX check inside of crash_info.
But up to you.

3. Why don't you say the same about 'siaddr'? It is also
just a plain address.

4. We usually use /** in out-of-function comment's
first line.

5. This is a functional change. Previously for the backtrace
we used the static buffer.

1) Why did you change it?

2) Why isn't it in a separate commit? As I told you, it is really
hard to extract what did you change in a ~460 lines patch titled as
'move' to check if it does not break anything or is even needed.
Please, don't make it harder.

Also print_backtrace() becomes unused after your patch.
