rcutorture: Dump writer stack if stalled
Right now, rcutorture warns if an rcu_torture_writer() kthread stalls, but this warning is not always all that helpful. This commit therefore makes the first such warning include a stack dump. This in turn requires that sched_show_task() be exported to GPL modules, so this commit makes that change as well. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
