kernel/sysctl: add panic_print into sysctl
So that we can also runtime chose to print out the needed system info for panic, other than setting the kernel cmdline.

+panic_print:

+Bitmask for printing system info when panic happens. User can chose
+combination of the following bits:
+
+bit 0: print all tasks info
+bit 1: print system memory info
+bit 2: print timer info
+bit 3: print locks info if CONFIG_LOCKDEP is on
+bit 4: print ftrace buffer

When set to 1, calls panic() after RCU stall detection messages. This
