softlockup: serialized softlockup's log

Browse source

If multiple CPUs trigger softlockup at the same time with
'softlockup_all_cpu_backtrace=0', the softlockup's logs will appear
staggeredly in dmesg, which will affect the viewing of the logs for
developer.  Since the code path for outputting softlockup logs is not a
kernel hotspot and the performance requirements for the code are not
strict, locks are used to serialize the softlockup log output to improve
the readability of the logs.
