softlockup: add a /proc tuning parameter
Control the trigger limit for softlockup warnings. This is useful for
debugging softlockups, by lowering the softlockup_thresh to identify
possible softlockups earlier.
This patch:
1. Adds a sysctl softlockup_thresh with valid values of 1-60s
(Higher value to disable false positives)
2. Changes the softlockup printk to print the cpu softlockup time
