I was worried about the kernel and the early user space booting being in the "grey area" where errors might occurr which can cause the device (I'm talking about embedded devices here) to go into failed state without watchdog being able to reboot the machinge. But as you said, this can be fixed by adding additional module parameters that override this default behavior, so I have no further objections for this patch.
