[V6 PATCH 6/6] Documentation: Add documentation for kernel.panic_on_io_nmi sysctl

[Hidehiro Kawai]

kernel.panic_on_io_nmi sysctl was introduced by commit 5211a242d0cb
("x86: Add sysctl to allow panic on IOCK NMI error"), but its
documentation is missing. So, add it.

V6:
- Newly added

 ==============================================================
 
+panic_on_io_nmi:
+
+Controls the kernel's behavior when a CPU receives an NMI caused by
+an IO error.
+
+0: try to continue operation (default)
+
+1: panic immediately. The IO error triggered NMI indicates a serious
+   system condition, which could result in IO data corruption. Rather
+   than continuing, panicking might be a better choice. Some servers
+   issue this sort of NMI when the dump button is pushed, and you
+   can use this option to take a crash dump
+

 panic_on_oops:
 
 Controls the kernel's behaviour when an oops or BUG is encountered.
