    A few people have reported unwinder warnings like the following:
    
      WARNING: kernel stack frame pointer at ffffc90000fe7ff0 in rsync:1157 has bad value           (null)

    This warning can happen when unwinding a code path where an interrupt
    occurred in x86 entry code before it set up the first stack frame.
    Silently ignore any warnings for this case.
