x86/dumpstack: Add log_lvl to __show_regs()
show_trace_log_lvl() provides x86 platform-specific way to unwind backtrace with a given log level. Unfortunately, registers dump(s) are not printed with the same log level - instead, KERN_DEFAULT is always used. Arista's switches uses quite common setup with rsyslog, where only urgent messages goes to console (console_log_level=KERN_ERR), everything else goes into /var/log/ as the console baud-rate often is indecently slow (9600 bps). Backtrace dumps without registers printed have proven to be as useful as morning standups. Furthermore, in order to introduce KERN_UNSUPPRESSED (which I believe is still the most elegant way to fix raciness of sysrq[1]) the log level should be passed down the stack to register dumping functions. Besides, there is a potential use-case for printing traces with KERN_DEBUG level [2] (where registers dump shouldn't appear with higher log level). Add log_lvl parameter to __show_regs(). Keep the used log level intact to separate visible change.
