which, realistically, has quite little to do with the "and thus it fixes the lockups". logbuf size is mutable, the number of consoles we need to sequentially push the data to is mutable, the watchdog threshold is mutable... if combination of first two mutable things produces the result which makes the check based on the third mutable thing happy, then it's just an accident. my 5 cents.
