for panic, other than setting the kernel cmdline.

==============================================================
panic_print:
Bitmask for printing system info when panic happens. User can chose
combination of the following bits:
bit 0: print all tasks info
bit 1: print system memory info
bit 2: print timer info
bit 3: print locks info if CONFIG_LOCKDEP is on
bit 4: print ftrace buffer

echo 3 > /proc/sys/kernel/panic_print

When set to 1, calls panic() after RCU stall detection messages. This
