[RFC][PATCHv6 03/12] printk: consider watchdogs thresholds for offloading

[Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>]

There are several watchdogs, using different timeout values, so
we need to set printk offloading threshold appropriately. This
patch set extends offloading_threshold() to take RCU, softlockup
and hardlockup timeouts into consideration.
