From dfe564045c653d9e6969ccca57a8a04771d333f7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: chao Date: Sun, 30 Aug 2020 23:41:17 -0700 Subject: rcu: Panic after fixed number of stalls Some stalls are transient, so that system fully recovers. This commit therefore allows users to configure the number of stalls that must happen in order to trigger kernel panic. Signed-off-by: chao Signed-off-by: Paul E.
