[PATCH] watchdog: Force console verbose when reporting lockups

[Tzung-Bi Shih <tzungbi@kernel.org>]

When a hard or soft lockup is detected, the watchdog prints a header at
KERN_EMERG (<0>), followed by diagnostic details (modules, registers,
and backtraces) at KERN_WARNING/KERN_DEFAULT (<4>) and KERN_INFO (<6>).
If console_loglevel is quiet (<= 4), the console skips those <4>/<6>
diagnostic messages before vpanic() has a chance to call
console_verbose().  With the buddy detector, this leaves only the
detector CPU's panic stack on the console and nothing about the locked
CPU:

  <0>[ 1535.991833][    C6] watchdog: Watchdog detected hard LOCKUP on cpu 7
  <0>[ 1535.995960][    C6] Kernel panic - not syncing: Hard LOCKUP
  <4>[ 1535.995970][    C6] CPU: 6 UID: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/6 ...
  <4>[ 1535.995997][    C6] Call trace:
  ...
  <4>[ 1535.996063][    C6]  watchdog_hardlockup_check+0x1e0/0x288
  <4>[ 1535.996075][    C6]  watchdog_buddy_check_hardlockup+0xb4/0xc0

Similar to commit 168e06f7937d ("kernel/hung_task.c: force console
verbose before panic"), call console_verbose() before printing the
lockup report so the diagnostic output is not suppressed.
