/*
* The hangcheck-timer driver uses the TSC to catch delays that
* jiffies does not notice. A timer is set. When the timer fires, it
* checks whether it was delayed and if that delay exceeds a given
* margin of error. The hangcheck_tick module paramter takes the timer
* duration in seconds. The hangcheck_margin parameter defines the
* margin of error, in seconds. The defaults are 60 seconds for the
* timer and 180 seconds for the margin of error. IOW, a timer is set
* for 60 seconds. When the timer fires, the callback checks the
* actual duration that the timer waited. If the duration exceeds the
* alloted time and margin (here 60 + 180, or 240 seconds), the machine
* is restarted. A healthy machine will have the duration match the
* expected timeout very closely.
