Also, if panic is enabled, the timeout needs to be adjusted accordingly
(to only panic after the entire timeout period has expired, not after
half of it). We can not panic the system after timeout / 2.

I am not too happy with the parameter name (panic_enabled). How about
"action", to match machzwd ?
