printk: Rename abandon_console_lock_in_panic() to other_cpu_in_panic()
Currently abandon_console_lock_in_panic() is only used to determine if the current CPU should immediately release the console lock because another CPU is in panic. However, later this function will be used by the CPU to immediately release other resources in this situation. Rename the function to other_cpu_in_panic(), which is a better description and does not assume it is related to the console lock.
