debug lockups: Improve lockup detection, fix generic arch fallback
As Andrew noted, my previous patch ("debug lockups: Improve lockup detection") broke/removed SysRq-L support from architecture that do not provide a __trigger_all_cpu_backtrace implementation. Restore a fallback path and clean up the SysRq-L machinery a bit: - Rename the arch method to arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() - Simplify the define - Document the method a bit - in the hope of more architectures adding support for it. [ The patch touches Sparc code for the rename. ] Cc: Paul E.
