Re: [PATCH]: Fix bogus softlockup warning with sysrq-t

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 ...
