Hi Akashi,
Some of the points which came while discussing with Mark Salter are worth
including in v13.

"non-panic" would be correct in stead of "non-boot".
OK, but for consistency with other places (say, arm/kernel/machine_kexec.c)
I prefer "non-crashing cpus."

We have "set_cpu_online(cpu, false);" just before it.
Panic core is waiting for non-panic to go offline, i.e. for the above event.
+#ifdef CONFIG_KEXEC
+ if (in_crash_kexec)
+ crash_save_cpu(regs, cpu);

However, we are still saving crash info for non-panic core. So, it would be good
to move crash_save_cpu() before set_cpu_online() to avoid any race condition.
Good point, race will be very unlikely though. I will fix it.
Thanks,
