Hi all, It seems that PANIC_REBOOT_WAIT_TIME has been a compile-time setting forever; and I can't see any reason for this, but I assume there was one... at some point in the distant past. The attached patch makes it a loader tunable and sysctl. My reason for wanting this is to make EC2 images reboot faster after a panic (not that it happens very often, of course) -- there's no point waiting for a key press at the console because the EC2 console is output-only.
