x86: Avoid calling arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() at the same time 

The spin_lock_debug/rcu_cpu_stall detector uses
trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() to dump cpu backtrace.
Therefore it is possible that trigger_all_cpu_backtrace()
could be called at the same time on different CPUs, which
triggers and 'unknown reason NMI' warning. The following case
illustrates the problem:

      CPU1                    CPU2                     ...   CPU N
                       trigger_all_cpu_backtrace()
                       set "backtrace_mask" to cpu mask
                               |
generate NMI interrupts  generate NMI interrupts       ...
    \                          |                               /
     \                         |                              /

The "backtrace_mask" will be cleaned by the first NMI interrupt
at nmi_watchdog_tick(), then the following NMI interrupts
generated by other cpus's arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() will
be taken as unknown reason NMI interrupts.

This patch uses a test_and_set to avoid the problem, and stop
the arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() from calling to avoid
dumping a double cpu backtrace info when there is already a
trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() in progress.
