[patch 132/176] watchdog: Fix sysctl consistency

From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Feb 15 2011 - 19:59:30 EST


2.6.36-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Marcin Slusarz <marcin.slusarz@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 397357666de6b5b6adb5fa99f9758ec8cf30ac34 upstream.

If it was not possible to enable watchdog for any cpu, switch
watchdog_enabled back to 0, because it's visible via
kernel.watchdog sysctl.
