kernel/hung_task.c: show all hung tasks before panic
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
When we get a hung task it can often be valuable to see _all_ the hung
tasks on the system before calling panic().

----------------------------------------

When reporting an AB-BA deadlock like shown above, it would be nice if
trace of PID=6541 is printed as well as trace of PID=6540 before calling
panic().

Showing hung tasks up to /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_warnings could delay
calling panic() but normally there should not be so many hung tasks.
