+ WARNING: You almost certainly do not want this!!!

+ Enable RCU CPU-stall notifiers, which are invoked just before
+ printing the RCU CPU stall warning. As such, bugs in notifier
+ callbacks can prevent stall warnings from being printed.
+ And the whole reason that a stall warning is being printed is
+ that something is hung up somewhere. Therefore, the notifier
+ callbacks must be written extremely carefully, preferably
+ containing only lockless code. After all, it is quite possible
+ that the whole reason that the RCU CPU stall is happening in
+ the first place is that someone forgot to release whatever lock
+ that you are thinking of acquiring. In which case, having your
+ notifier callback acquire that lock will hang, preventing the
+ RCU CPU stall warning from appearing.
