[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.4 5/6] printk: Rename abandon_console_lock_in_panic() to other_cpu_in_panic()

From: Sasha Levin

From: John Ogness <john.ogness@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 132a90d1527fedba2d95085c951ccf00dbbebe41 ]

Currently abandon_console_lock_in_panic() is only used to determine if
the current CPU should immediately release the console lock because
another CPU is in panic. However, later this function will be used by
the CPU to immediately release other resources in this situation.

Rename the function to other_cpu_in_panic(), which is a better
description and does not assume it is related to the console lock.
