Subject: [PATCH] softlockup: allow checking for remote CPUs getting stuck in
irq
This patch makes softlockup be able to report the status of
remote CPUs even though they are getting stuck in irq context.
The approach is just to let each local softlockup_tick() check
for threshold timespan for all CPUs.
