The latter function can just be shortcut unto a local panic too.

But do we really need to panic here? It's a PITA to debug since it'll
be a very early panic. I'd rather have the system log errors in dmesg
but continue booting with one cpu.

(That can be done incrementally on top of this, and doesn't need to
hold up this patch series).
