panic: keep blinking in spite of long spin timer mode
To keep panic_timeout accuracy when running under a hypervisor, the
current implementation only spins on long time (1 second) calls to mdelay.
That brings a good effect, but the problem is the keyboard LEDs don't
blink at all on that situation.
This patch changes to call to panic_blink_enter() between every mdelay and
keeps blinking in spite of long spin timer mode.
The time to call to mdelay is now 100ms. Even this change will keep
panic_timeout accuracy enough when running under a hypervisor.
