lkdtm/bugs: add test for panic() with stuck secondary CPUs

Upon a panic() the kernel will use either smp_send_stop() or
crash_smp_send_stop() to attempt to stop secondary CPUs via an IPI,
which may or may not be an NMI. Generally it's preferable that this is an
NMI so that CPUs can be stopped in as many situations as possible, but
it's not always possible to provide an NMI, and there are cases where
CPUs may be unable to handle the NMI regardless.

This patch adds a test for panic() where all other CPUs are stuck with
interrupts disabled, which can be used to check whether the kernel
gracefully handles CPUs failing to respond to a stop, and whether NMIs
actually work to stop CPUs.

For example, on arm64 *without* an NMI, this results in:

| # echo PANIC_STOP_IRQOFF > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT
| lkdtm: Performing direct entry PANIC_STOP_IRQOFF
| Kernel panic - not syncing: panic stop irqoff test

Note the "failed to stop secondary CPUs 0-3" message.

On arm64 *with* an NMI, this results in:

| # echo PANIC_STOP_IRQOFF > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT
| lkdtm: Performing direct entry PANIC_STOP_IRQOFF
| Kernel panic - not syncing: panic stop irqoff test

Note the absence of a "failed to stop secondary CPUs" message, since we
don't log anything when secondary CPUs are successfully stopped.
