+ rcupdate.rcu_task_stall_info= [KNL]
+ Set initial timeout in jiffies for RCU task stall
+ informational messages, which give some indication
+ of the problem for those not patient enough to
+ wait for ten minutes. Informational messages are
+ only printed prior to the stall-warning message
+ for a given grace period. Disable with a value
+ less than or equal to zero. Defaults to ten
+ seconds. A change in value does not take effect
+ until the beginning of the next grace period.

+ rcupdate.rcu_task_stall_info_mult= [KNL]
+ Multiplier for time interval between successive
+ RCU task stall informational messages for a given
+ RCU tasks grace period. This value is clamped
+ to one through ten, inclusive. It defaults to
+ the value three, so that the first informational
+ message is printed 10 seconds into the grace
+ period, the second at 40 seconds, the third at
+ 160 seconds, and then the stall warning at 600
+ seconds would prevent a fourth at 640 seconds.
