trace: better use of stack_trace_enabled for boot up code
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Impact: clean up

Andrew Morton suggested to use the stack_tracer_enabled variable
to decide whether or not to start stack tracing on bootup.
This lets us remove the start_stack_trace variable.
