RISC-V: Add fast call path of crash_kexec()

[ Upstream commit 3f1901110a89b0e2e13adb2ac8d1a7102879ea98 ]

Currently, almost all archs (x86, arm64, mips...) support fast call
of crash_kexec() when "regs && kexec_should_crash()" is true. But
RISC-V not, it can only enter crash system via panic(). However panic()
doesn't pass the regs of the real accident scene to crash_kexec(),
it caused we can't get accurate backtrace via gdb,
$ riscv64-linux-gnu-gdb vmlinux vmcore
Reading symbols from vmlinux...
[New LWP 95]
#0  console_unlock () at kernel/printk/printk.c:2557
2557                    if (do_cond_resched)
(gdb) bt
#0  console_unlock () at kernel/printk/printk.c:2557
#1  0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()

With the patch we can get the accurate backtrace,
$ riscv64-linux-gnu-gdb vmlinux vmcore
