Subject: [PATCH v2] panic: add an option to replay all the printk message in buffer

Currently on panic, kernel will lower the loglevel and print out
new printk msg only with console_flush_on_panic().

Add an option for users to configure the "panic_print" to see
all dmesg in buffer, some of which they may have never seen due
to the loglevel setting, which will help debugging too.

Thanks to Petr Mladek as somes codes come directly from the sample
code in his review comments.

Changelog:

  v2:
    - Add a new func in printk.c dedicated for the replaying, as
      suggested by Petr Mladekand
    - Combine the 2 patches in v1 into one suggested by both Petr
      and Sergey
