[PATCH v3 4/4] nmi_backtrace: generate one-line reports for idle cpus

From: Chris Metcalf
Date: Tue Mar 22 2016 - 13:35:30 EST


When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle,
the output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative. Suppress
messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just
emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN".

We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new
.cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the
interrupted PC to see if it lies within that section.

This commit suitably tags x86, arm64, and tile idle routines,
and only adds in the minimal framework for other architectures.
