McKenney" <paulmck@...ux.vnet.ibm.com> Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 13/48] 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.
