[PATCH v2] panic: call panic handlers before panic_other_cpus_shutdown()
From: Hamza Mahfooz
Date: Fri Feb 21 2025 - 16:31:42 EST
Since, the panic handlers may require certain cpus to be online to panic
gracefully, we should call them before turning off SMP. Without this
re-ordering, on Hyper-V hv_panic_vmbus_unload() times out, because the
vmbus channel is bound to VMBUS_CONNECT_CPU and unless the crashing cpu
is the same as VMBUS_CONNECT_CPU, VMBUS_CONNECT_CPU will be offlined by
crash_smp_send_stop() before the vmbus channel can be deconstructed.
