Hidehiro Kawai b279d67df8 x86/nmi: Save regs in crash dump on external NMI
Now, multiple CPUs can receive an external NMI simultaneously by
specifying the "apic_extnmi=all" command line parameter. When we take
a crash dump by using external NMI with this option, we fail to save
registers into the crash dump. This happens as follows:

  CPU 0                              CPU 1
  ================================   =============================
  receive an external NMI
  default_do_nmi()                   receive an external NMI
    spin_lock(&nmi_reason_lock)      default_do_nmi()
    io_check_error()                   spin_lock(&nmi_reason_lock)
      panic()                            busy loop
      ...
        kdump_nmi_shootdown_cpus()
          issue NMI IPI -----------> blocked until IRET
                                         busy loop...

Here, since CPU 1 is in NMI context, an additional NMI from CPU 0
remains unhandled until CPU 1 IRETs. However, CPU 1 will never execute
IRET so the NMI is not handled and the callback function to save
registers is never called.

To solve this issue, we check if the IPI for crash dumping was issued
while waiting for nmi_reason_lock to be released, and if so, call its
callback function directly. If the IPI is not issued (e.g. kdump is
disabled), the actual behavior doesn't change.
