kernel/notifier.c: intercept duplicate registrations to avoid infinite loops 

Registering the same notifier to a hook repeatedly can cause the hook
list to form a ring or lose other members of the list.

  case1: An infinite loop in notifier_chain_register() can cause soft lockup
          atomic_notifier_chain_register(&test_notifier_list, &test1);
          atomic_notifier_chain_register(&test_notifier_list, &test1);
          atomic_notifier_chain_register(&test_notifier_list, &test2);

  case2: An infinite loop in notifier_chain_register() can cause soft lockup
          atomic_notifier_chain_register(&test_notifier_list, &test1);
          atomic_notifier_chain_register(&test_notifier_list, &test1);
          atomic_notifier_call_chain(&test_notifier_list, 0, NULL);

  case3: lose other hook test2
          atomic_notifier_chain_register(&test_notifier_list, &test1);
          atomic_notifier_chain_register(&test_notifier_list, &test2);
          atomic_notifier_chain_register(&test_notifier_list, &test1);

  case4: Unregister returns 0, but the hook is still in the linked list,
         and it is not really registered. If you call
         notifier_call_chain after ko is unloaded, it will trigger oops.

If the system is configured with softlockup_panic and the same hook is
repeatedly registered on the panic_notifier_list, it will cause a loop
panic.

Add a check in notifier_chain_register(), intercepting duplicate
registrations to avoid infinite loops
