[PARISC] Fix show_stack() when we can't kmalloc
show_stack() was calling kzalloc() to allocate a struct pt_regs. This meant that *really* early stack dumps would cause a null pointer dereference. x86_64 allocates its pt_regs on the stack, so do the same. Kyle actually committed this exact patch to CVS on Wed Jul 26 14:32:39 2006 UTC, and never moved it across to git. Bad Kyle.
