Subject[PATCH] Documentation: document hung_task_panic kernel parameter
Date
From: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com>

decouple hung tasks check from softlockup detection") in 2009 but was
never documented.

+ A nonzero value instructs the kernel to panic when a
+ hung task is detected. The default value is controlled
+ by the CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_HUNG_TASK_PANIC build-time
+ option. The value selected by this boot parameter can
+ be changed later by the kernel.hung_task_panic sysctl.
