[PATCH] Documentation: document hung_task_panic kernel parameter

[Omar Sandoval]

From: Omar Sandoval <osandov@xxxxxx>

This parameter has been around since commit e162b39a368f ("softlockup:
decouple hung tasks check from softlockup detection") in 2009 but was
never documented.

+			by the CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_HUNG_TASK_PANIC build-time
