From c68de2097a8799549a3c3bf27cbfeea24a604284 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Thu, 15 Apr 2010 10:12:40 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] rcu: disable CPU stall warnings upon panic The current RCU CPU stall warnings remain enabled even after a panic occurs, which some people have found to be a bit counterproductive. This patch therefore uses a notifier to disable stall warnings once a panic occurs. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
