Dmitry Vyukov a2e5144538 kernel/hung_task.c: allow to set checking interval separately from timeout
Currently task hung checking interval is equal to timeout, as the result
hung is detected anywhere between timeout and 2*timeout.  This is fine for
most interactive environments, but this hurts automated testing setups
(syzbot).  In an automated setup we need to strictly order CPU lockup <
RCU stall < workqueue lockup < task hung < silent loss, so that RCU stall
is not detected as task hung and task hung is not detected as silent
machine loss.  The large variance in task hung detection timeout requires
setting silent machine loss timeout to a very large value (e.g.  if task
hung is 3 mins, then silent loss need to be set to ~7 mins).  The
additional 3 minutes significantly reduce testing efficiency because
usually we crash kernel within a minute, and this can add hours to bug
localization process as it needs to do dozens of tests.

Allow setting checking interval separately from timeout.  This allows to
set timeout to, say, 3 minutes, but checking interval to 10 secs.

The interval is controlled via a new hung_task_check_interval_secs sysctl,
similar to the existing hung_task_timeout_secs sysctl.  The default value
of 0 results in the current behavior: checking interval is equal to
timeout.
