[PATCH 2/7] x86, dumpstack: let signr=0 signal no do_exit

[Alexander van Heukelum]

Change oops_end such that signr=0 signals that do_exit
is not to be called.

Currently, each use of __die is soon followed by a call
to oops_end and 'regs' is set to NULL if oops_end is expected
not to call do_exit. Change all such pairs to set signr=0
instead. On x86_64 oops_end is used 'bare' in die_nmi; use
signr=0 instead of regs=NULL there, too.
