despite there being existing defconfigs which specify negative values,
this channel does not actually appear to work, and the kernel behaves
as if the sign is being discarded. A PANIC_TIMEOUT=-1 reboots after a
second, not immediately.

Hardcoding the value in situ works, passing it via defconfig not so
much. I assume the negative value code path is intended for
consumption :D
Yours sincerely,
