[patch 25/29] lockup_detector: Implement init time detection of perf
From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Thu Aug 31 2017 - 03:33:42 EST
Use the init time detection of the perf NMI watchdog to determine whether
the perf NMI watchdog is functional. If not disable it permanentely. It
won't come back magically at runtime.
