Subject: [PATCH rcu 08/10] sched/debug: Show the registers of 'current' in dump_cpu_task()

From: Zhen Lei <thunder.leizhen@...wei.com>

The dump_cpu_task() function does not print registers on architectures
that do not support NMIs.  However, registers can be useful for
debugging.  Fortunately, in the case where dump_cpu_task() is invoked
from an interrupt handler and is dumping the current CPU's stack, the
get_irq_regs() function can be used to get the registers.

Therefore, this commit makes dump_cpu_task() check to see if it is being
asked to dump the current CPU's stack from within an interrupt handler,
and, if so, it uses the get_irq_regs() function to obtain the registers.
On systems that do support NMIs, this commit has the further advantage
of avoiding a self-NMI in this case.

This is an example of rcu self-detected stall on arm64, which does not
support NMIs:
