This config item helps getting some useful information when lockup
happens. If you want to validate locks then probably you want
PROVE_LOCKING... but its overhead is larger.

Anyway the overhead of LOCKUP_DETECTOR is small and multi_v7_defconfig
has it enabled so I guess exynos may do it as well.

Could you only fix up the commit msg?
