Michael Ellerman 5cc05910f2 powerpc/64s: Wire up arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace()
This allows eg. the RCU stall detector, or the soft/hardlockup
detectors to trigger a backtrace on all CPUs.

We implement this by sending a "safe" NMI, which will actually only
send an IPI. Unfortunately the generic code prints "NMI", so that's a
little confusing but we can probably live with it.

If one of the CPUs doesn't respond to the IPI, we then print some info
from it's paca and do a backtrace based on its saved_r1.

Example output:

  INFO: rcu_sched detected stalls on CPUs/tasks:
  	2-...0: (0 ticks this GP) idle=1be/1/4611686018427387904 softirq=1055/1055 fqs=25735
  	(detected by 4, t=58847 jiffies, g=58, c=57, q=1258)
  Sending NMI from CPU 4 to CPUs 2:
  CPU 2 didn't respond to backtrace IPI, inspecting paca.
  irq_soft_mask: 0x01 in_mce: 0 in_nmi: 0 current: 3623 (bash)

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
