Now the last users of show_stack() got converted to use an explicit log

again well known show_stack().

Currently, the log-level of show_stack() depends on a platform
realization.  It creates situations where the headers are printed with
lower log level or higher than the stacktrace (depending on a platform or
user).

Furthermore, it forces the logic decision from user to an architecture
side.  In result, some users as sysrq/kdb/etc are doing tricks with
temporary rising console_loglevel while printing their messages.  And in
result it not only may print unwanted messages from other CPUs, but also
omit printing at all in the unlucky case where the printk() was deferred.

Introducing log-level parameter and KERN_UNSUPPRESSED [1] seems an easier
approach than introducing more printk buffers.  Also, it will consolidate
printings with headers.

Introduce show_stack_loglvl(), that eventually will substitute
show_stack().

Patch series "Add log level to show_stack()", v3.

Add log level argument to show_stack().

Done in three stages:
1. Introducing show_stack_loglvl() for every architecture
2. Migrating old users with an explicit log level
3. Renaming show_stack_loglvl() into show_stack()

Justification:

- It's a design mistake to move a business-logic decision into platform
  realization detail.

- I have currently two patches sets that would benefit from this work:
  Removing console_loglevel jumps in sysrq driver [1] Hung task warning
  before panic [2] - suggested by Tetsuo (but he probably didn't realise
  what it would involve).

- While doing (1), (2) the backtraces were adjusted to headers and other
  messages for each situation - so there won't be a situation when the
  backtrace is printed, but the headers are missing because they have
  lesser log level (or the reverse).

- As the result in (2) plays with console_loglevel for kdb are removed.

The least important for upstream, but maybe still worth to note that every
company I've worked in so far had an off-list patch to print backtrace
with the needed log level (but only for the architecture they cared
about).  If you have other ideas how you will benefit from show_stack()
with a log level - please, reply to this cover letter.

See also discussion on v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20191106083538.z5nlpuf64cigxigh@pathway.suse.cz/

This patch (of 50):

print_ip_sym() needs to have a log level parameter to comply with other
parts being printed.  Otherwise, half of the expected backtrace would be
printed and other may be missing with some logging level.

The following callee(s) are using now the adjusted log level:
- microblaze/unwind: the same level as headers &amp; userspace unwind.
  Note that pr_debug()'s there are for debugging the unwinder itself.
- nds32/traps: symbol addresses are printed with the same log level
  as backtrace headers.
- lockdep: ip for locking issues is printed with the same log level
  as other part of the warning.
- sched: ip where preemption was disabled is printed as error like
  the rest part of the message.
- ftrace: bug reports are now consistent in the log level being used.

GCC allows users to hint to the register allocation that a variable should be
placed in a register by using a syntax along the lines of

    function(...) {
        register long in_REG __asm__("REG");
    }

We've abused this a bit throughout the RISC-V port to access fixed registers
directly as C variables.  In practice it's never going to blow up because GCC
isn't going to allocate these registers, but it's not a well defined syntax so
we really shouldn't be relying upon this.  Luckily there is a very similar but
well defined syntax that allows us to still access these registers directly as
C variables, which is to simply declare the register variables globally.  For
fixed variables this doesn't change the ABI.

LLVM disallows this ambiguous syntax, so this isn't just strictly a formatting
change.

This patch add support for perf callchain sampling on riscv platforms.
The return address of leaf function is retrieved from pt_regs as
it is not saved in the outmost frame.

Pull RISC-V updates from Palmer Dabbelt:
 "This contains an assortment of RISC-V related patches that I'd like to
  target for the 5.2 merge window. Most of the patches are cleanups, but
  there are a handful of user-visible changes:

   - The nosmp and nr_cpus command-line arguments are now supported,
     which work like normal.

   - The SBI console no longer installs itself as a preferred console,
     we rely on standard mechanisms (/chosen, command-line, hueristics)
     instead.

   - sfence_remove_sfence_vma{,_asid} now pass their arguments along to
     the SBI call.

   - Modules now support BUG().

   - A missing sfence.vma during boot has been added. This bug only
     manifests during boot.

   - The arch/riscv support for SiFive's L2 cache controller has been
     merged, which should un-block the EDAC framework work.

  I've only tested this on QEMU again, as I didn't have time to get
  things running on the Unleashed. The latest master from this morning
  merges in cleanly and passes the tests as well"
