Hi!
This patchset fixes 2 issues on CPU backtrace during panic. The first
issue was pointed out by John [1].
(1) The usual(non-panic context) flushing of backtraces written into
ringbuffer does not work during panic as non-panicked CPUs can't do the
flushing themselves.
(2) CPU backtrace triggered during panic has stopped working since the
commit 779dbc2e78d7 ("printk: Avoid non-panic CPUs writing to ringbuffer")
as it disabled non-panicked cpus writing into ringbuffer after panic.
Sincerely,
Ryo Takakura

Changes since V1:
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240729114601.176047-1-takakura@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/T/
- Thanks for the feedbacks by Petr and John.
- Fix the issue (1) seperately from original patch.
- Fix the issue (2) by allowing non-panicked CPUs to write into ringbuffer
while CPU backtrace is triggered as suggested by Petr.
