hung_task debugging: Print more info when reporting the problem

printk(KERN_ERR) from check_hung_task() likely means we have a bug,
but unlike BUG_ON()/WARN_ON ()it doesn't show the kernel version,
this complicates the bug-reports investigation.

Add the additional pr_err() to print tainted/release/version
like dump_stack_print_info() does, the output becomes:

        INFO: task perl:504 blocked for more than 2 seconds.
	      Not tainted 3.11.0-rc1-10367-g136bb46-dirty #1763
        "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.
        ...

While at it, turn the old printk's into pr_err().
