rcu: Print stall-warning NMI dyntick state in hexadecimal
The ->dynticks_nmi_nesting field records the nesting depth of both interrupt and NMI handlers. Because the kernel can enter interrupts and never leave them (and vice versa) and because NMIs can interrupt manipulation of the ->dynticks_nmi_nesting field, the values in this field must be both chosen and maniupated very carefully. As a result, although the value is zero when the corresponding CPU is executing neither an interrupt nor an NMI handler, it is 4,611,686,018,427,387,906 on 64-bit systems when there is a single level of interrupt/NMI handling in progress. This number is difficult to remember and interpret, so this commit switches the output to hexadecimal, resulting in the much nicer 0x4000000000000002. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
