So, the name watchdog_enable_hardlockup_detector_enable(false)
is both too long and also really confusing (because first it
suggests enablement, then disables it), so I renamed it to
hardlockup_detector_set(), which allows two natural variants:
hardlockup_detector_set(false);
...
hardlockup_detector_set(true);
Thanks,
Ingo
