Subject: hung_task: decrement sysctl_hung_task_warnings only if it is positive
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4ca5ede07c9871c13ae422c96d6d08dbd0df5eda;p=linux-beck.git

hung_task: decrement sysctl_hung_task_warnings only if it is positive

Since sysctl_hung_task_warnings == -1 is allowed (infinite warnings),
commit 48a6d64edadb ("hung_task: allow hung_task_panic when
hung_task_warnings is 0") should decrement it only when it is not -1.

This prevents the kernel from ceasing warnings after the first
4294967295 ;)
