Thank you for proposing this patchset.

Every architecture gets show_stack_loglvl() means that it will become
possible to implement dump_stack_loglvl(const char *loglvl), isn't it?

I'm about to start a proposal for making it possible to suppress printing majority of
OOM-killer messages and memory allocation failure messages to consoles
( https://lkml.kernel.org/r/efc649fc-f838-97ea-44a2-882f068d033c@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ), for
dump_stack() / show_mem() / dump_tasks() etc. can take long time (if printed to consoles) is
an unhappy thing for OOM context and atomic context.
