[PATCH] arm64:kexec: have own crash_smp_send_stop() for crash dump for nonpanic cores

[Hoeun Ryu]

 Commit 0ee5941 : (x86/panic: replace smp_send_stop() with kdump friendly
version in panic path) introduced crash_smp_send_stop() which is a weak
function and can be overriden by architecture codes to fix the side effect
caused by commit f06e515 : (kernel/panic.c: add "crash_kexec_post_
notifiers" option).

 ARM64 architecture uses the weak version function and the problem is that
the weak function simply calls smp_send_stop() which makes other CPUs
offline and takes away the chance to save crash information for nonpanic
CPUs in machine_crash_shutdown() when crash_kexec_post_notifiers kernel
option is enabled.

 Calling smp_send_crash_stop() in the function is useless because all
nonpanic CPUs are already offline by smp_send_stop() in this case and
smp_send_crash_stop() only works against online CPUs.

 The result is that /proc/vmcore is not available with the error messages;
"Warning: Zero PT_NOTE entries found", "Kdump: vmcore not initialized".

 crash_smp_send_stop() is implemented for ARM64 architecture to fix this
problem and the function (strong symbol version) saves crash information
for nonpanic CPUs using smp_send_crash_stop() and machine_crash_shutdown()
tries to save crash information for nonpanic CPUs only when
crash_kexec_post_notifiers kernel option is disabled.
