Or even easier using decode_stacktrace.sh from the linux
kernel tree (exists since 3.16).


Usage:
    
            ./decode_stacktrace.sh [vmlinux] [base path]
    
    Where vmlinux is the vmlinux to extract line numbers from and base path
    is the path that points to the root of the build tree, for example:
    
            ./decode_stacktrace.sh vmlinux /home/sasha/linux/ < input.log > output.log


Then stacktrace will include file and line number:

      [  635.148361]  dump_stack (lib/dump_stack.c:52)
      [  635.149127]  warn_slowpath_common (kernel/panic.c:418)
      [  635.150214]  warn_slowpath_null (kernel/panic.c:453)
      [  635.151031]  _oalloc_pages_slowpath+0x6a/0x7d0
      [  635.152171]  ? zone_watermark_ok (mm/page_alloc.c:1728)
      [  635.152988]  ? get_page_from_freelist (mm/page_alloc.c:1939)
      [  635.154766]  __alloc_pages_nodemask (mm/page_alloc.c:2766)
