rcu: disable CPU stall warnings upon panic
The current RCU CPU stall warnings remain enabled even after a panic occurs, which some people have found to be a bit counterproductive. This patch therefore uses a notifier to disable stall warnings once a panic occurs. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
