    kernel/smp: Provide boot-time timeout for CSD lock diagnostics · 3791a223
    Paul E. McKenney authored
    Debugging of problems involving insanely long-running SMI handlers
    proceeds better if the CSD-lock timeout can be adjusted.  This commit
    therefore provides a new smp.csd_lock_timeout kernel boot parameter
    that specifies the timeout in milliseconds.  The default remains at the
    previously hard-coded value of five seconds.
