Subject: hung_task: introduce helper for hung task warning
Date: Mon, 15 Dec 2025 22:00:35 -0500

Patch series "hung_task: Provide runtime reset interface for hung task
detector", v3.

This series introduces the ability to reset
/proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_detect_count.

Writing any value to this file atomically resets the counter of detected
hung tasks to zero.  This functionality provides system administrators
with the means to clear the cumulative diagnostic history following
incident resolution, thereby simplifying subsequent monitoring without
necessitating a system restart.


This patch (of 2):

Consolidate the multi-line console output block for reporting a hung task
into a new helper function, hung_task_diagnostics().  This improves
readability in the main check_hung_task() loop and makes the diagnostic
output structure easier to maintain and update in the future.
