By additional panic_print messages you mean that panic_print_sys_info()
will print everything (except PANIC_PRINT_ALL_PRINTK_MSG) twice?

Do we really need to dump everything twice? show_mem(), show_state(),
ftrace_dump(DUMP_ALL). That's quite a bit of extra data.

Can instead this be something like (?):
