Currently the gsmi driver registers a panic notifier as well as
reboot and die notifiers. The callbacks registered are called in
atomic and very limited context - for instance, panic disables
preemption and local IRQs, also all secondary CPUs (not executing
the panic path) are shutdown.
With that said, taking a spinlock in this scenario is a dangerous
invitation for lockup scenarios. So, fix that by checking if the
spinlock is free to acquire in the panic notifier callback - if not,
bail-out and avoid a potential hang.
