[PATCH 9/9] watchdog: introduce the hardlockup_detector_disable() function

From: Don Zickus
Date: Tue Nov 04 2014 - 11:21:08 EST


From: Ulrich Obergfell <uobergfe@xxxxxxxxxx>

Have kvm_guest_init() use hardlockup_detector_disable()
instead of watchdog_enable_hardlockup_detector(false).

Remove the watchdog_hardlockup_detector_is_enabled() and
the watchdog_enable_hardlockup_detector() function which
are no longer needed.
