[RFC PATCH 2/7] smp: unify crash_ and smp_send_stop() logic

From: Cristian Marussi
Date: Fri Aug 23 2019 - 07:58:50 EST


crash_smp_send_stop() logic was fairly similar to smp_send_stop():
a lot of logic and code was duplicated between the two code paths and
across a few different architectures.

Unify this underlying common logic into the existing SMP common stop
code: use a common workhorse function for both paths to perform the
common tasks while taking care to propagate to the underlying
architecture code the intent of the stop operation: a simple stop or
a crash dump stop.

Relocate the __weak crash_smp_send_stop() function from panic.c to smp.c,
since it is the crash dump entry point for the crash stop process and now
calls into this new common logic (only if this latter is enabled by
ARCH_USE_COMMON_SMP_STOP=y).

Introduce a few more helpers so that the architectures willing to use
the common code logic can provide their arch-specific bits to handle
the differences between a stop and a crash stop; architectures can
anyway decide to override as a whole the common logic providing their
own custom solution in crash_smp_send_stop() (as it was before).

Provide also a new common code method to inquiry on the outcome of an
ongoing crash_stop procedure: smp_crash_stop_failed().
