return_address() currently relies on walk_stackframe() setting
frame->lr, but walk_stackframe() never sets this field.

Setting frame->lr from walk_stackframe() would require
walk_stackframe() to unwind one frame beyond the frame being
returned, and to track extra state in struct stackframe.

The value of this is debatable, so this patch modifies
caller_address() to unwind one extra level explicitly and reference
frame->pc instead of frame->lr.
