printk: introduce dump_stack_lvl()
dump_stack() is used for many different cases, which may require a log level consistent with other kernel messages surrounding the dump_stack() call. Without that, certain systems that are configured to ignore the default level messages will miss stack traces in critical error reports. This patch introduces dump_stack_lvl() that behaves similarly to dump_stack(), but accepts a custom log level. The old dump_stack() becomes equal to dump_stack_lvl(KERN_DEFAULT). A somewhat similar patch has been proposed in 2012: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1332493269.2359.9.camel@hebo/ , but wasn't merged.
