[Xen-devel] [PATCH v3] x86: show remote CPU state upon fatal NMI or unknown MCE



Quite frequently the watchdog would hit an innocent CPU, e.g. one
trying to acquire a spin lock a remote CPU holds for extended periods
of time, or a random CPU in TSC calbration rendezvous. In such cases
the register and stack dump for that CPU doesn't really help in the
analysis of the problem.

To keep things reasonable on large systems, only log CS:RIP by default.
This can be overridden via a new command line option such that full
register/stack state would get logged.

v3: Add timeout. (Andrew, I hope the R-b can be kept despite the logic
    not being a 1:1 clone of what the crash dump path does.)
v2: Pass flag to fatal_trap().
