+ Set the number of workqueue stalls to trigger a kernel panic.
+ A workqueue stall occurs when a worker pool doesn't make forward
+ progress on a pending work item for over 30 seconds (configurable
+ using the workqueue.watchdog_thresh parameter).
+
+ If n = 0, the kernel will not panic on stall. If n > 0, the kernel
+ will panic after n stall warnings.
+
+ The panic can be used in combination with panic_timeout,
+ to cause the system to reboot automatically after a
+ stall has been detected. This feature is useful for
+ high-availability systems that have uptime guarantees and
+ where a stall must be resolved ASAP.
+
+ This setting can be overridden at runtime via the
+ workqueue.panic_on_stall kernel parameter.
