[PATCH] Change panic_on_oops message to "Fatal exception"
Previously the message was "Fatal exception: panic_on_oops", as introduced
in a recent patch whith removed a somewhat dangerous call to ssleep() in
the panic_on_oops path. However, Paul Mackerras suggested that this was
somewhat confusing, leadind people to believe that it was panic_on_oops
that was the root cause of the fatal exception. On his suggestion, this
patch changes the message to simply "Fatal exception". A suitable oops
message should already have been displayed.
