rcu: Once again use NMI-based stack traces in stall warnings
This commit is for all intents and purposes a revert of bc1dce51 ("rcu: Don't use NMIs to dump other CPUs' stacks"). The reason to suppose that this can now safely be reverted is the presence of 42a0bb3f ("printk/nmi: generic solution for safe printk in NMI"), which is said to have made NMI-based stack dumps safe. However, this reversion keeps one nice property of bc1dce51 ("rcu: Don't use NMIs to dump other CPUs' stacks"), namely that only those CPUs blocking the grace period are dumped. The new trigger_single_cpu_backtrace() is used to make this happen, as suggested by Josh Poimboeuf. Reported-by: Vince Weaver <vincent.weaver@maine.edu> Signed-off-by: Paul E.
