nmi_watchdog default setting on i386 and x86_64

[Mike Mason]

Does anybody know the reasoning behind having nmi_watchdog turned off by 
default on i386 and on by default on x86_64.  I've heard that i386 had 
problems with false positives in the past, but that local apic watchdog 
may make that concern obsolete.

Mike Mason
