+
+	  When a hung task is detected, the kernel will print the
+	  current stack trace (which you should report), but the
+	  task will stay in uninterruptible state. If lockdep is
+	  enabled then all held locks will also be reported. This
+	  feature has negligible overhead.

+	help
+	  Say Y here to enable the kernel to panic on "hung tasks",
+	  which are bugs that cause the kernel to leave a task stuck
+	  in uninterruptible "D" state.
+
+	  The panic can be used in combination with panic_timeout,
+	  to cause the system to reboot automatically after a
+	  hung task has been detected. This feature is useful for
+	  high-availability systems that have uptime guarantees and
+	  where a hung tasks must be resolved ASAP.
