Sebastian Andrzej Siewior e83a4472bf panic: remove oops_id
The oops id has been added as part of the end of trace marker for the
kerneloops.org project.  The id is used to automatically identify
duplicate submissions of the same report.  Identical looking reports
with different a id can be considered as the same oops occurred again.

The early initialisation of the oops_id can create a warning if the
random core is not yet fully initialized.  On PREEMPT_RT it is
problematic if the id is initialized on demand from non preemptible
context.

The kernel oops project is not available since 2017.  Remove the oops_id
and use 0 in the output in case parser rely on it.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
