[RFC PATCH v4 10/21] watchdog/hardlockup: Add function to enable NMI watchdog on all allowed CPUs at once

[Ricardo Neri]

When there are more than one implementation of the NMI watchdog, there may
be situations in which switching from one to another is needed (e.g., if
the time-stamp counter becomes unstable, the HPET-based NMI watchdog can
no longer be used.

The perf-based implementation of the hardlockup detector makes use of
various per-CPU variables which are accessed via this_cpu operations.
Hence, each CPU needs to enable its own NMI watchdog if using the perf
implementation.

Add functionality to switch from one NMI watchdog to another and do it
from each allowed CPU.
