Most of what gets printed is upto each architecture and the current state is not particularly pretty. Different pieces of information are presented differently depending on which path the dump takes and which architecture it's running on. This is messy for no good reason and makes it exceedingly difficult to add or modify debug information to task dumps. In all archs except for s390, there's nothing arch-specific about the printed debug information. This patchset updates all those archs to use the same helpers to consistently print out the same debug information. An example WARN dump after this patchset.

This patchset contains the following five patches. 0001-x86-don-t-show-trace-beyond-show_stack-NULL-NULL.patch 0002-sparc32-make-show_stack-acquire-fp-if-_ksp-is-not-sp.patch 0003-dump_stack-consolidate-dump_stack-implementations-an.patch 0004-dump_stack-implement-arch-specific-hardware-descript.patch 0005-dump_stack-unify-debug-information-printed-by-show_r.patch 0001-0002 update stack dumping functions in x86 and sparc32 in preparation. 0003 makes all arches except s390 and blackfin use generic dump_stack(). blackfin still uses the generic helper to print the same info. s390 is left alone as its current debug info includes arch-specific stuff. 0004 properly abstracts DMI identifier printing in WARN() and show_regs() so that all dumps print out the information. This enables show_regs() to use the same debug info message. 0005 updates show_regs() of all arches except for s390 to use a common generic helper to print debug info. While this patchset changes how debug info is printed on some archs, the printed information is always superset of what used to be there. This patchset makes task dump debug messages consistent and enables adding more information. Workqueue is scheduled to add worker information including the workqueue in use and work item specific description. This patchset is based on top of v3.9-rc4 and available in the following git branch. git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/misc.git review-unify-dump While this patch touches a lot of archs, it isn't too likely to cause non-trivial conflicts with arch-specfic changes and would probably be best to route together either through -tip or -mm. x86 is tested but other archs are either only compile tested or not tested at all. Changes to most archs are generally trivial. diffstat follows.
