Currently, there are various global init exit issues encountered
on Andriod/linux system. It's hard to debug these issues on product
environment without a usable coredump, This patch dump the last
exit thread executable sections and regs to find the exit reason
before panic.

Again, I am not going to comment the intent. I agree that the more info
the better, but I think someone else should ack this patch.
However. I won't argue, but somehow I can't say I really like it ;)
Can you look at panic_print_sys_info() called by panic() ?
Perhaps it makes more sense to introduce another PANIC_PRINT_XXX
option for dump_thread_maps_info() ?
To me it would be more clean/consistent wrt other info panic() reports.
