Subject: [PATCH] ARM:kexec:offline panic_smp_self_stop CPU

From: Yufen Wang <wangyufen@...wei.com>

In case panic() and panic() called at the same time on different CPUS.
For example:
CPU 0:
  panic()
     __crash_kexec
       machine_crash_shutdown
         crash_smp_send_stop
       machine_kexec
         BUG_ON(num_online_cpus() > 1);

CPU 1:
  panic()
    local_irq_disable
    panic_smp_self_stop

If CPU 1 calls panic_smp_self_stop() before crash_smp_send_stop(), kdump
fails. CPU1 can't receive the ipi irq, CPU1 will be always online.
I changed BUG_ON to WARN in kexec crash as arm64 does, kdump also fails.
Because num_online_cpus() > 1, can't disable the L2 in _soft_restart.
To fix this problem, this patch split out the panic_smp_self_stop()
and add set_cpu_online(smp_processor_id(), false).
