'panic_print' was introduced to help debugging kernel panic by dumping different kinds of system information like tasks' call stack, memory, ftrace buffer, etc. Actually this function could also be used to help debugging other cases like task-hung, soft/hard lockup, etc. where user may need the snapshot of system info at that time. Extract system info dump function related code from panic.c to separate file sys_info.[ch], for wider usage by other kernel parts for debugging. Also modify the macro names about singulars/plurals.

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 reStructuredText 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.
