I have another pair of softlockup patches in which I try to address:
* ignoring time stolen by hypervisors
* threads going to sleep tickless for long periods of time
I'm looking at the code now. Your solution is definately better :)
I could easy add a "global disable" function, which would allow long
sysrq messages, and it would help Thilo with his long flash update freezes.
I think that's a good idea -- I'll propose an add on patch to fix the
sysrq-t case ...
