Perform an emergency filesystem sync when an EC panic is reported. An
emergency sync actually performs two syncs internally in case some
inodes or pages are temporarily locked.

hw_protection_shutdown is replaced for a few reasons. It is unnecessary
because the EC will force reset either way. hw_protection_shutdown does
not reliably sync filesystem before shutting down. emergency_sync is not
synchronous so hw_protection_shutdown may interrupt emergency_sync.
