+nmi_wd_lpm_factor (PPC only)
+============================
+
+Factor to apply to the NMI watchdog timeout (only when ``nmi_watchdog`` is
+set to 1). This factor represents the percentage added to
+``watchdog_thresh`` when calculating the NMI watchdog timeout during an
+LPM. The soft lockup timeout is not impacted.
+
+A value of 0 means no change. The default value is 200 meaning the NMI
+watchdog is set to 30s (based on ``watchdog_thresh`` equal to 10).
