printk: Add panic_in_progress helper 



This will be used help avoid deadlocks during panics. Although it would
be better to include this in linux/panic.h, it would require that header
to include linux/atomic.h as well. On some architectures, this results
in a circular dependency as well. So instead add the helper directly to
printk.c.
