Andi Kleen 316d9679f3 Don't trigger softlockup detector on network fs blocked tasks
Pulling the ethernet cable on a 2.6.27-rc system with NFS mounts
currently leads to an ongoing flood of soft lockup detector backtraces
for all tasks blocked on the NFS mounts when the hickup takes
longer than 120s.

I don't think NFS problems should be all that noisy.

Luckily there's a reasonably easy way to distingush this case.

Don't report task softlockup warnings for tasks in TASK_KILLABLE
state, which is used by the network file systems.

I believe this patch is a 2.6.27 candidate.
