Oh no, we don't print everything twice, that'd be insane heh

The patch only anticipates the call site for the panic_print_sys_info()
- but as discussed in the first iterations, we couldn't just bring it
earlier due to the console replay thing. Hence, we needed to split
calls...the first call dumps the information, the 2nd call only does the
console replaying if that is set.

Cheers,


Guilherme
