Subject: hung_task_timeout: configurable default
References: bnc#552820
Patch-mainline: not yet
This patch allows the default value for sysctl_hung_task_timeout_secs
to be set at build time. The feature carries virtually no overhead,
so it makes sense to keep it enabled. On heavily loaded systems, though,
it can end up triggering stack traces when there is no bug other than
the system being underprovisioned.
The old default of 120 seconds is preserved.

+ This option controls the default timeout (in seconds) used
+ to determine when a task has become non-responsive and should

+ It can be adjusted at runtime via the kernel.hung_task_timeout

+ A timeout of 0 disables the check. The default is 120 seconds.
