[ Upstream commit 77498617857f68496b360081dde1a492d40c28b2 ]

This will be used help avoid deadlocks during panics. Although it would
be better to include this in linux/panic.h, it would require that header
to include linux/atomic.h as well. On some architectures, this results
in a circular dependency as well. So instead add the helper directly to
printk.c.
