Configfs is the interface for ocfs2-tools to set configure to kernel and $configfs_dir/cluster/$clustername/heartbeat/dead_threshold is the one used to configure heartbeat dead threshold. Kernel has a default value of it but user can set O2CB_HEARTBEAT_THRESHOLD in /etc/sysconfig/o2cb to override it. Commit 45b997737a80 ("ocfs2/cluster: use per-attribute show and store methods") changed heartbeat dead threshold name while ocfs2-tools did not, so ocfs2-tools won't set this configurable and the default value is always used. So revert it.
