[PATCH] panic: Don't print redundant backtraces on oops

[Andi Kleen]

From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

When an oops causes a panic and panic prints another backtrace it's
pretty common to have the original oops data be scrolled away on a 80x50
screen.

The second backtrace is quite redundant and not needed anyways.

So don't print the panic backtrace when oops_in_progress is true.
