kernel/watchdog.c:41:19: warning: symbol

These variables are only used in their defining file, so they should
be static.

This problem showed up after the patch ("watchdog/hardlockup: rename
some "NMI watchdog" constants/function") because that rename missed
the header file. That didn't cause any compile-time errors because,
since commit dd0693fdf054 ("watchdog: move watchdog sysctl interface
to watchdog.c"), nobody outside of "watchdog.c" was actually referring
to them. Thus, not only should we make these variables static but we
should remove the old declarations in the header file that we missed
renaming.

This is a squash of two patches that were posted to mailing lists, one
official patch posted by Tom [1] and one that was posted in reply to
my previous patch by Petr [2].

IMO it makes sense to put these two things into one patch since
they're basically dealing with the same issue. As promised [3] I'm
posting the squash of the two patches.

I have no idea how to really tag this and set authorship. I've chosen
to leave author/Signed-off-by from Tom. Peter didn't officially
include his Singed-off-by on his patch (as is common when posting
suggestions in reply to another patch), so I didn't add it but added a
Suggested-by from him. Hopefully this is OK. I dropped Mukesh's
Reviewed-by just because it felt like things changed enough with the
addition of Petr's stuff that it should be re-added.

I've tagged this as "Fixes" based on the git hash in the current
linuxnext.
