x86/mm: Print likely CPU at segfault time

In a large enough fleet of computers, it is common to have a few bad CPUs.
Those can often be identified by seeing that some commonly run kernel code,
which runs fine everywhere else, keeps crashing on the same CPU core on one
particular bad system.

However, the failure modes in CPUs that have gone bad over the years are
often oddly specific, and the only bad behavior seen might be segfaults
in programs like bash, python, or various system daemons that run fine
everywhere else.

Add a printk() to show_signal_msg() to print the CPU, core, and socket
at segfault time.

This is not perfect, since the task might get rescheduled on another
CPU between when the fault hit, and when the message is printed, but in
practice this has been good enough to help people identify several bad
CPU cores.

For example:

  segfault[1349]: segfault at 0 ip 000000000040113a sp 00007ffc6d32e360 error 4 in \
	  segfault[401000+1000] likely on CPU 0 (core 0, socket 0)

This printk can be controlled through /proc/sys/debug/exception-trace.

  [ bp: Massage a bit, add "likely" to the printed line to denote that
    the CPU number is not always reliable. ]
