Subject: [PATCH] kernel/panic/kexec: fix "crash_kexec_post_notifiers" option issue in oops path

The commit f06e5153f4ae2e2f3b0300f0e260e40cb7fefd45 introduced
"crash_kexec_post_notifiers" kernel boot option, which toggles
wheather panic() calls crash_kexec() before or after panic_notifiers
and dump kmsg.

The problem is that the commit overlooks panic_on_oops kernel boot
option. If it is enabled, crash_kexec() is called directly without
going through panic() in oops path.

To fix this issue, this patch adds a check to
"crash_kexec_post_notifiers" in the condition of kexec_should_crash().

What if these two conditions !p->pid || is_global_init(p) are satisfied?
Seems the behavious is changed.

Please further follow do_exit() path. For each condition, there are
the corresponding panic() calls. In summary:

oops_end
1) panic() for in_interrupt()
2) panic() for panic_on_oops
do_exit
3) panic() for !p->pid (idle task)
exit_notify
forget_original_parent
find_child_reaper
4) panic() for p->pid == 1 (init task)

Yes, all conditions have been covered.

So this patch is necessary, ACK it. Thanks

Thanks for the patch!
I tested it in following cases on x86_64 and it worked well;
my panic notifier was called, then 2nd kernel booted.

- Null pointer dereference in each context of
- hard IRQ
- pid == 0
- pid == 1
- others with panic_on_oops=1
- Zero-divide in the context of normal process
(panic_on_oops=1)
