Subject: [PATCH 0/7] x86, dumpstack: unify oops_begin, oops_end, die_nmi and die

Hello Neil, Ingo, everyone,

This patch series unifies oops_begin, oops_end, die_nmi
and die in dumpstack_xx.c. The first patch might be
considered a bug-fix, because otherwise, as Neil Horman
points out, it might be possible to call crash_kexec with
the console_sem held; if that happens, we deadlock.

Greetings,
	Alexander
