even on powerpc, i see __die ends up calling show_regs_print_info().
Why print it twice?

I don't understand what you mean, what is printed twice ?

I can't see show_regs_print_info() printing the preemption model, am I missing something ?


Patch 2/9 add preemption string in dump_stack_print_info.

__die -> show_regs() _> show_regs_print_info() -> dump_stack_print_info() -> init_utsname()->version, preempt_model_str(), BUILD_ID_VAL);

Wont we end up in this path?

v2…v3:
   - Use printk() instead of pr_emerg() to remain consistent with the
     other invocations in terms of printing context.
