Subject: [PATCH 4.16 277/279] ARM: kexec: fix kdump register saving on panic()

4.16-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@...linux.org.uk>

[ Upstream commit 2d7b3c64431245c95b05a441669c074da10db943 ]

When a panic() occurs, the kexec code uses smp_send_stop() to stop
the other CPUs, but this results in the CPU register state not being
saved, and gdb is unable to inspect the state of other CPUs.

Commit 0ee59413c967 ("x86/panic: replace smp_send_stop() with kdump
friendly version in panic path") addressed the issue on x86, but
ignored other architectures.  Address the issue on ARM by splitting
out the crash stop implementation to crash_smp_send_stop() and
adding the necessary protection.
