[PATCH v3 1/3] powerpc/xmon: Fix an unexpected xmon on/off state change

[Guilherme G. Piccoli]

From: Pan Xinhui <xinhui.pan at linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Once xmon is triggered by sysrq-x, it is enabled always afterwards even
if it is disabled during boot. This will cause a system reset interrupt
fail to dump. So keep xmon in its original state after exit.

We have several ways to set xmon on or off.
1) by a build config CONFIG_XMON_DEFAULT.
2) by a boot cmdline with xmon, xmon=early or xmon=on to enable xmon
and xmon=off to disable xmon. This value will override that in step 1.
3) by a debugfs interface, as proposed in this patchset.
This value can override those in step 1 and 2.
