This patch adds new notifier function tunable_notifier_chain. Its base is
atomic_notifier_chain.

Thanks,

+Description:
+               The /sys/kernel/notifiers/<notifier>/<notifier_block>/priority
+               file controls notifier_block order on notifier. Writing to this
+               file will insert the notifier_block to appropriate place that is
+               pointed by new priority.

+Description:
+               This file shows the description of the notifier_block that
+               belongs to. It helps to decide the priority value.
