nmi_backtrace: allow excluding an arbitrary CPU

The APIs that allow backtracing across CPUs have always had a way to
exclude the current CPU. This convenience means callers didn't need to
find a place to allocate a CPU mask just to handle the common case.

Let's extend the API to take a CPU ID to exclude instead of just a
boolean. This isn't any more complex for the API to handle and allows the
hardlockup detector to exclude a different CPU (the one it already did a
trace for) without needing to find space for a CPU mask.

Arguably, this new API also encourages safer behavior. Specifically if
the caller wants to avoid tracing the current CPU (maybe because they
already traced the current CPU) this makes it more obvious to the caller
that they need to make sure that the current CPU ID can't change.

we sanitized a few names for consistency.

powerpc/watchdog: help remote CPUs to flush NMI printk output

The printk layer at the moment does not seem to have a good way to force
flush printk messages that are created in NMI context, except in the
panic path.

NMI-context printk messages normally get to the console with irq_work,
but that won't help if the CPU is stuck with irqs disabled, as can be
the case for hard lockup watchdog messages.

The watchdog currently flushes the printk buffers after detecting a
lockup on remote CPUs, but they may not have processed their NMI IPI
yet by that stage, or they may have self-detected a lockup in which
case they won't go via this NMI IPI path.

Improve the situation by having NMI-context mark a flag if it called
printk, and have watchdog timer interrupts check if that flag was set
and try to flush if it was. Latency is not a big problem because we
were already stuck for a while, just need to try to make sure the
messages eventually make it out.

When taking watchdog actions, printing messages, comparing and

and under wd_smp_lock or printing lock (if applicable).

This should keep timebase mostly monotonic with kernel log messages, and
could prevent (in theory) a laggy CPU updating wd_smp_last_reset_tb to
something a long way in the past, and causing other CPUs to appear to be
stuck.

These additional TB reads are all slowpath (lockup has been detected),
so performance does not matter.

powerpc/watchdog: Avoid holding wd_smp_lock over printk and smp_send_nmi_ipi

There is a deadlock with the console_owner lock and the wd_smp_lock:

CPU x takes the console_owner lock
CPU y takes a watchdog timer interrupt and takes __wd_smp_lock
CPU x takes a soft-NMI interrupt, detects deadlock, spins on __wd_smp_lock
CPU y detects deadlock, tries to print something and spins on console_owner
-> deadlock

Change the watchdog locking scheme so wd_smp_lock protects the watchdog
internal data, but "reporting" (printing, issuing NMI IPIs, taking any
action outside of watchdog) uses a non-waiting exclusion. If a CPU detects
a problem but can not take the reporting lock, it just returns because
something else is already reporting. It will try again at some point.

Typically hard lockup watchdog report usefulness is not impacted due to
failure to spewing a large enough amount of data in as short a time as
possible, but by messages getting garbled.

Laurent debugged this and found the deadlock, and this patch is based on
his general approach to avoid expensive operations while holding the lock.
With the addition of the reporting exclusion.

powerpc/watchdog: tighten non-atomic read-modify-write access

Most updates to wd_smp_cpus_pending are under lock except the watchdog
interrupt bit clear.

This can race with non-atomic RMW updates to the mask under lock, which
can happen in two instances:

Firstly, if another CPU detects this one is stuck, removes it from the
mask, mask becomes empty and is re-filled with non-atomic stores. This
is okay because it would re-fill the mask with this CPU's bit clear
anyway (because this CPU is now stuck), so it doesn't matter that the
bit clear update got "lost". Add a comment for this.

Secondly, if another CPU detects a different CPU is stuck and removes it
from the pending mask with a non-atomic store to bytes which also
include the bit of this CPU. This case can result in the bit clear being
lost and the end result being the bit is set. This should be so rare it
hardly matters, but to make things simpler to reason about just avoid
the non-atomic access for that case.

Although the safe buffers are removed, the NMI and safe context
tracking is still in place. In these contexts, store the message
immediately but still use irq_work to defer the console printing.

Since printk recursion tracking is in place, safe context tracking
for most of printk is not needed. Remove it. Only safe context
tracking relating to the console and console_owner locks is left
in place. This is because the console and console_owner locks are
needed for the actual printing.

Using a jiffies timer creates a dependency on the tick_do_timer_cpu

creates false positives and confusing warnings on local CPUs, and
also causes the SMP detector to stop, so the root cause is never
detected.

Fix this by using hrtimer based timers for the watchdog heartbeat,
like the generic kernel hardlockup detector.

There is an asynchronous aspect to smp_send_nmi_ipi. The caller waits
for all CPUs to call in to the handler, but it does not wait for
completion of the handler. This is a needless complication, so remove
it and always wait synchronously.

The synchronous wait allows the caller to easily time out and clear
the wait for completion (zero nmi_ipi_busy_count) in the case of badly
behaved handlers. This would have prevented the recent smp_send_stop
NMI IPI bug from causing the system to hang.
