@aclements requested issue #62326 to be considered for backport to the next 1.21 minor release.

@gopherbot , please backport to Go 1.21.

This causes the runtime to crash when an assembly function that modifies SP grows the stack or is preempted for GC. This should be pretty rare, but the crash is difficult to work around.

This fixes a runtime fatal error that is a regression. Approved.

…k frame

Prior to CL 458218, gentraceback ignored the SPWrite function flag on
the innermost frame when doing a precise traceback on the assumption
that precise tracebacks could only be started from the morestack
prologue, and that meant that the innermost function could not have
modified SP yet.

CL 458218 rearranged this logic a bit and unintentionally lost this
particular case. As a result, if traceback starts in an assembly
function that modifies SP (either as a result of stack growth or stack
scanning during a GC preemption), traceback stop at the SPWrite
function and then crash with "traceback did not unwind completely".

Fix this by restoring the earlier special case for when the innermost
frame is SPWrite.

This is a fairly minimal change that should be easy to backport. I
think a more robust change would be to encode this per-PC in the
spdelta table, so it would be clear that we're unwinding from the
morestack prologue and wouldn't rely on a complicated and potentially
fragile set of conditions.

Fixes #62464.
