The APIs that allow backtracing across CPUs have always had a way to
exclude the current CPU. This convenience means callers didn't need to
find a place to allocate a CPU mask just to handle the common case.

Let's extend the API to take a CPU ID to exclude instead of just a
boolean. This isn't any more complex for the API to handle and allows
the hardlockup detector to exclude a different CPU (the one it already
did a trace for) without needing to find space for a CPU mask.

Arguably, this new API also encourages safer behavior. Specifically if
the caller wants to avoid tracing the current CPU (maybe because they
already traced the current CPU) this makes it more obvious to the
caller that they need to make sure that the current CPU ID can't
change.

Changes in v4:
- Renamed trigger_allbutself_cpu_backtrace() for when trigger is unsupported.

Changes in v3:
- ("nmi_backtrace: Allow excluding an arbitrary CPU") new for v3.
