-Purpose:
-  Detect software lockups on each CPU.

-To reduce its OS jitter, do at least one of the following:
-
-1.	Build with CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR=n, which will prevent these
-	kthreads from being created in the first place.
-2.	Boot with "nosoftlockup=0", which will also prevent these kthreads
-	from being created.  Other related watchdog and softlockup boot
-	parameters may be found in Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst
-	and Documentation/watchdog/watchdog-parameters.rst.
-3.	Echo a zero to /proc/sys/kernel/watchdog to disable the
-	watchdog timer.
-4.	Echo a large number of /proc/sys/kernel/watchdog_thresh in
-	order to reduce the frequency of OS jitter due to the watchdog
-	timer down to a level that is acceptable for your workload.
