x86/unwind: Fix empty stack dereference in guess unwinder

  BUG: stack guard page was hit at ffffc90008500000 (stack is ffffc900084fc000..ffffc900084fffff)
  kernel stack overflow (page fault): 0000 [#1] SMP
  ...

The NMI hit in the entry code right after setting up the stack pointer
from 'cpu_current_top_of_stack', so the kernel stack was empty.  The
'guess' version of __unwind_start() attempted to dereference the "top of
stack" pointer, which is not actually *on* the stack.

Add a check in the guess unwinder to deal with an empty stack.  (The
frame pointer unwinder already has such a check.)
