[PATCH v7 22/24] x86/watchdog: Add a shim hardlockup detector

Add a shim hardlockup detector that allows to select between the perf- and
HPET-driven implementations available for x86.

Override the interfaces of the default hardlockup detector.

Changes since v6:
 * None

Changes since v5:
 * Added watchdog_nmi_start() to be used when the watchdog is
   reconfigured.
 * Always build the x86-specific hardlockup detector shim; not only
   when the HPET-based detector is selected.
 * Corrected a typo in comment in watchdog_nmi_probe() (Ani)
 * Removed useless local ret variable in watchdog_nmi_enable(). (Ani)

Changes since v4:
 * Use a switch to enable and disable the various available detectors.
   (Andi)

Changes since v3:
 * Fixed style in multi-line comment. (Randy Dunlap)

Changes since v2:
 * Pass cpu number as argument to hardlockup_detector_[enable|disable].
   (Thomas Gleixner)

Changes since v1:
 * Introduced this patch: Added an x86-specific shim hardlockup
   detector. (Nicholas Piggin)
