Print the stack trace with KERN_EMERG - it should be always visible.

Playing with console_loglevel is a bad idea as there may be more messages
printed than wanted.  Also the stack trace might be not printed at all if
printk() was deferred and console_loglevel was raised back before the
trace got flushed.

Unfortunately, after rebasing on commit 2277b492 ("kdb: Fix stack
crawling on 'running' CPUs that aren't the master"), kdb_show_stack() uses
now kdb_dump_stack_on_cpu(), which for now won't be converted as it uses
dump_stack() instead of show_stack().

Convert for now the branch that uses show_stack() and remove
console_loglevel exercise from that case.

History
Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
