Subject: [PATCH printk v5 29/30] rcu: Mark emergency sections in rcu stalls

Mark emergency sections wherever multiple lines of
rcu stall information are generated. In an emergency
section the CPU will not perform console output for the
printk() calls. Instead, a flushing of the console
output is triggered when exiting the emergency section.
This allows the full message block to be stored as
quickly as possible in the ringbuffer.
