In the hope that this will reduce the number of "what does this oops
mean?" and "what do I need to report?" questions on l-k. Hits all
architectures, only tested on i386 but "obviously correct" (yeah,
right!).
Print "Read Documentation/oops-tracing.txt before reporting this
problem" before oops, nmi lockup etc. If somebody is maintaining a bug
database, I don't mind if the message is modified to also point to the
bug database.
There is no consistency between architectures. Call read_oops_text()
in the die() routine if the arch has one, otherwise in the
die_if_kernel() routine. For some awkward architectures, even call
read_oops_text() from open code.
