Patch series "hung_task: Dump the blocking task stacktrace", v4.
The hung_task detector is very useful for detecting the lockup. However,
since it only dumps the blocked (uninterruptible sleep) processes, it is
not enough to identify the root cause of that lockup.
For example, if a process holds a mutex and sleep an event in
interruptible state long time, the other processes will wait on the mutex
in uninterruptible state. In this case, the waiter processes are dumped,
but the blocker process is not shown because it is sleep in interruptible
state.
This adds a feature to dump the blocker task which holds a mutex
when detecting a hung task. e.g.
INFO: task cat:115 blocked for more than 122 seconds.

TBD: We can extend this feature to cover other locks like rwsem and
rt_mutex, but rwsem requires to dump all the tasks which acquire and wait
that rwsem. We can follow the waiter link but the output will be a bit
different compared with mutex case.
This patch (of 2):
The "hung_task" shows a long-time uninterruptible slept task, but most
often, it's blocked on a mutex acquired by another task. Without dumping
such a task, investigating the root cause of the hung task problem is very
difficult.
This introduce task_struct::blocker_mutex to point the mutex lock which
this task is waiting for. Since the mutex has "owner" information, we can
find the owner task and dump it with hung tasks.
Note: the owner can be changed while dumping the owner task, so
this is "likely" the owner of the mutex.
With this change, the hung task shows blocker task's info like below;
INFO: task cat:115 blocked for more than 122 seconds.
