[PATCH v3 2/4] lib/dump_stack: Add dump_stack_print_cmdline() and wire up in dump_stack_print_info()

Add the function dump_stack_print_cmdline() which can be used by arch
code to print the command line of the current processs.  This function
is useful in arch code when dumping information for a faulting process.

Wire this function up in the dump_stack_print_info() function to include
the dumping of the command line for architectures which use
dump_stack_print_info().

As an example, with this patch a failing glibc testcase (which uses
ld.so.1 as starting program) up to now reported just "ld.so.1" failing:

 do_page_fault() command='ld.so.1' type=15 address=0x565921d8 in libc.so[f7339000+1bb000]
 trap #15: Data TLB miss fault, vm_start = 0x0001a000, vm_end = 0x0001b000

and now it reports in addition:

 ld.so.1[1151] cmdline: /home/gnu/glibc/objdir/elf/ld.so.1 --library-path /home/gnu/glibc/objdir:/home/gnu/glibc/objdir/math:/home/gnu/
    /home/gnu/glibc/objdir/malloc/tst-safe-linking-malloc-hugetlb1

Josh Triplett noted that dumping such command line parameters into
syslog may theoretically lead to information disclosure.
That's why this patch checks the value of the kptr_restrict sysctl
variable and will not print any information if kptr_restrict==2, and
will not show the program parameters if kptr_restrict==1.
