Add log level argument to show_stack().
Done in three stages:
1. Introducing show_stack_loglvl() for every architecture
2. Migrating old users with an explicit log level
3. Renaming show_stack_loglvl() into show_stack()
Justification:
o It's a design mistake to move a business-logic decision
into platform realization detail.
o I have currently two patches sets that would benefit from this work:
Removing console_loglevel jumps in sysrq driver [1]
Hung task warning before panic [2] - suggested by Tetsuo (but he
probably didn't realise what it would involve).
o While doing (1), (2) the backtraces were adjusted to headers
and other messages for each situation - so there won't be a situation
when the backtrace is printed, but the headers are missing because
they have lesser log level (or the reverse).
o As the result in (2) plays with console_loglevel for kdb are removed.
I really don't understand that word salad. Why are you doing this?
