they are not intrusive at all! The right way to do such things is to
keep them in reasonably small files.

would be nice to bring dumpstack_32.c and dumpstack_64.c together as
well. While some of the details like IST stack logic (which dont exist
on 32-bit) are special, most of the glue, the iterators, the boot
parameters, and even the output should be unified some more.
