workqueue: add CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_WQ_STALL_PANIC option
Add a kernel config option to set the default value of workqueue.panic_on_stall, similar to CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_SOFTLOCKUP_PANIC, CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_HARDLOCKUP_PANIC and CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_HUNG_TASK_PANIC. This allows setting the number of workqueue stalls before triggering a kernel panic at build time, which is useful for high-availability systems that need consistent panic-on-stall, in other words, those servers which run with CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_*_PANIC=y already. The default remains 0 (disabled). Setting it to 1 will panic on the first stall, and higher values will panic after that many stall warnings. The value can still be overridden at runtime via the workqueue.panic_on_stall boot parameter or sysfs. Signed-off-by: Breno Leitao <leitao@debian.org> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
