Subject[PATCH v2] kernel/hung_task: add option to ignore task
Date
By default, hung_task will iterate the tasklist and check
state in TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE with a given timeout value.

Here we add an option for task_struct so it can be ignored.
Set this flag to default true, it do not break the origin design.

This is useful when we set timeout value to 5s, where we just want
to detect some tasks interested.
