Subject[PATCH] kernel/watchdog.c: convert {soft/hard}lockup boot parameters to sysctl aliases
Date
After a recent change introduced by Vlastimil's series [0], kernel is
able now to handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line; also, the
series introduced a simple infrastructure to convert legacy boot
parameters (that duplicate sysctls) into sysctl aliases.

This patch converts the watchdog parameters softlockup_panic and
{hard,soft}lockup_all_cpu_backtrace to use the new alias infrastructure.
It fixes the documentation too, since the alias only accepts values 0
or 1, not the full range of integers. We also took the opportunity here
to improve the documentation of the previously converted hung_task_panic
(see the patch series [0]) and put the alias table in alphabetical order.

This patch is based on linux-next/akpm branch, at d0f3f6070c3a. Thanks
in advance for reviews!
Cheers,

Guilherme
