Subject: [PATCH csd-lock 1/2] smp: Reduce logging due to dump_stack of CSD waiters

From: Imran Khan <[email protected]>

If a waiter is waiting for CSD lock, its call stack will not change
between first and subsequent hang detection for the same CSD lock.
Therefore, do dump_stack only for first-time detection for a given waiter.

This avoids excessive logging on systems with hundreds of CPUs where
repetitive dump_stack from hundreds of CPUs would otherwise flood the
console.
