watchdog: new definitions and variables, initialization

Browse Source 
The hardlockup and softockup had always been tied together.  Due to the
request of KVM folks, they had a need to have one enabled but not the
other.  Internally rework the code to split things apart more cleanly.

There is a bunch of churn here, but the end result should be code that
should be easier to maintain and fix without knowing the internals of what
is going on.

This patch (of 9):

Introduce new definitions and variables to separate the user interface in
/proc/sys/kernel from the internal run state of the lockup detectors.  The
internal run state is represented by two bits in a new variable that is
named 'watchdog_enabled'.  This helps simplify the code, for example:

- In order to check if any of the two lockup detectors is enabled,
  it is sufficient to check if 'watchdog_enabled' is not zero.

- In order to enable/disable one or both lockup detectors,
  it is sufficient to set/clear one or both bits in 'watchdog_enabled'.

- Concurrent updates of 'watchdog_enabled' need not be synchronized via
  a spinlock or a mutex. Updates can either be atomic or concurrency can
  be detected by using 'cmpxchg'.

/*
* The run state of the lockup detectors is controlled by the content of the
* 'watchdog_enabled' variable. Each lockup detector has its dedicated bit -
* bit 0 for the hard lockup detector and bit 1 for the soft lockup detector.
*
* 'watchdog_user_enabled', 'nmi_watchdog_enabled' and 'soft_watchdog_enabled'
* are variables that are only used as an 'interface' between the parameters
* in /proc/sys/kernel and the internal state bits in 'watchdog_enabled'. The
* 'watchdog_thresh' variable is handled differently because its value is not
* boolean, and the lockup detectors are 'suspended' while 'watchdog_thresh'
