[PATCH] hung_task: ignore hung_task_warnings when hung_task_panic is enabled

From: Yongliang Gao
Date: Wed Jun 12 2024 - 23:36:28 EST


From: Yongliang Gao <leonylgao@xxxxxxxxxxx>

If hung_task_panic is enabled, don't consider the value of
hung_task_warnings and display the information of the hung
tasks.

In some cases, hung_task_panic might not be initially set up,
after several hung tasks occur, the hung_task_warnings count
reaches zero. If hung_task_panic is set up later, it may not
display any helpful hung task info in dmesg, only showing
messages like:

Kernel panic - not syncing: hung_task: blocked tasks
CPU: 3 PID: 58 Comm: khungtaskd Not tainted 6.10.0-rc3 #19
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996)
