printk: introduce per-cpu safe_print seq buffer 

This patch extends the idea of NMI per-cpu buffers to regions
that may cause recursive printk() calls and possible deadlocks.
Namely, printk() can't handle printk calls from schedule code
or printk() calls from lock debugging code (spin_dump() for instance);
because those may be called with `sem->lock' already taken or any
other `critical' locks (p->pi_lock, etc.). An example of deadlock
can be

 vprintk_emit()
  console_unlock()
   up()                        << raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&sem->lock, flags);
    wake_up_process()
     try_to_wake_up()
      ttwu_queue()
       ttwu_activate()
        activate_task()
         enqueue_task()
          enqueue_task_fair()
           cfs_rq_of()
            task_of()
             WARN_ON_ONCE(!entity_is_task(se))
              vprintk_emit()
               console_trylock()
                down_trylock()
                 raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&sem->lock, flags)
                 ^^^^ deadlock

and some other cases.

Just like in NMI implementation, the solution uses a per-cpu
`printk_func' pointer to 'redirect' printk() calls to a 'safe'
callback, that store messages in a per-cpu buffer and flushes
them back to logbuf buffer later.

Usage example:

 printk()
  printk_safe_enter_irqsave(flags)
  //
  //  any printk() call from here will endup in vprintk_safe(),
  //  that stores messages in a special per-CPU buffer.
  //
  printk_safe_exit_irqrestore(flags)

The 'redirection' mechanism, though, has been reworked, as suggested
by Petr Mladek. Instead of using a per-cpu @print_func callback we now
keep a per-cpu printk-context variable and call either default or nmi
vprintk function depending on its value. printk_nmi_entrer/exit and
printk_safe_enter/exit, thus, just set/celar corresponding bits in
printk-context functions.

The patch only adds printk_safe support, we don't use it yet.
