Subject: sched: Use show_regs() to improve __schedule_bug() output
From: Satyam Sharma <satyam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

A full register dump along with stack backtrace would make the "scheduling
while atomic" message more helpful.  Use show_regs() instead of
dump_stack() for this.  We already know we're atomic in here (that is why
this function was called) so show_regs()'s atomicity expectations are
guaranteed.

Also, modify the output of the "BUG: scheduling while atomic:" header a bit
to keep task->comm and task->pid together and preempt_count() after them.
