kdb: Fix stack crawling on 'running' CPUs that aren't the master

Browse Source 
In kdb when you do 'btc' (back trace on CPU) it doesn't necessarily
give you the right info.  Specifically on many architectures
(including arm64, where I tested) you can't dump the stack of a
"running" process that isn't the process running on the current CPU.
This can be seen by this:

 echo SOFTLOCKUP > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT
 # wait 2 seconds
 <sysrq>g

Here's what I see now on rk3399-gru-kevin.  I see the stack crawl for
the CPU that handled the sysrq but everything else just shows me stuck
in __switch_to() which is bogus:

The problem is that 'btc' eventually boils down to
  show_stack(task_struct, NULL);

...and show_stack() doesn't work for "running" CPUs because their
registers haven't been stashed.

On x86 things might work better (I haven't tested) because kdb has a
special case for x86 in kdb_show_stack() where it passes the stack
pointer to show_stack().  This wouldn't work on arm64 where the stack
crawling function seems needs the "fp" and "pc", not the "sp" which is
presumably why arm64's show_stack() function totally ignores the "sp"
parameter.

NOTE: we _can_ get a good stack dump for all the cpus if we manually
switch each one to the kdb master and do a back trace.  AKA:
  cpu 4
  bt
...will give the expected trace.  That's because now arm64's
dump_backtrace will now see that "tsk == current" and go through a
different path.

In this patch I fix the problems by catching a request to stack crawl
a task that's running on a CPU and then I ask that CPU to do the stack
crawl.

NOTE: this will (presumably) change what stack crawls are printed for
x86 machines.  Now kdb functions will show up in the stack crawl.
Presumably this is OK but if it's not we can go back and add a special
case for x86 again.
