Hi Peter, Al,

Reaching out about a problem I understand, but not quite sure how to fix it.
Its the weird feeling of how was this working all along, if at all.

With print-fatal-signals enabled, there's CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT splat all over,
even with a simple single threaded segv inducing program (console log below). This
originally came to light with a glibc test suite tst-tls3-malloc which is a
multi-threaded monster.

ARC show_regs() is a bit more fancy as it tries to print the executable path,
faulting vma name (in case it was a shared lib etc). This involves taking a bunch
of customary locks which seems to be tripping the debug infra.

The preemption disabling around show_regs() in core signal handling seem to have
been introduced back in 2009 by 3a9f84d354ce1 ("signals, debug: fix BUG: using
smp_processor_id() in preemptible code in print_fatal_signal()") and the fact it
it there still implies it is needed in general.

Possible solutions are to
(1) override this by re-enabling preemption in ARC show_regs()
(2) rip out all the mm access and hence locks from ARC show_regs()
...

Thx,
-Vineet
