Subject: [PATCH rcu 10/12] rcu: Put panic_on_rcu_stall() after expedited RCU CPU stall warnings

From: Zqiang <qiang1.zhang@...el.com>

When a normal RCU CPU stall warning is encountered with the
panic_on_rcu_stall sysfs variable is set, the system panics only after
the stall warning is printed.  But when an expedited RCU CPU stall
warning is encountered with the panic_on_rcu_stall sysfs variable is
set, the system panics first, thus never printing the stall warning.
This commit therefore brings the expedited stall warning into line with
the normal stall warning by printing first and panicking afterwards.
