When CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_HOTPLUG_CPU0 is enabled, the socket containing the
boot cpu can be replaced. During the hot add event, the message
NMI watchdog: enabled on all CPUs, permanently consumes one hw-PMU counter.
is output implying that the NMI watchdog was disabled at some point. This
is not the case and the message has caused confusion for users of systems
that support the removal of the boot cpu socket.
The watchdog code is coded to assume that cpu 0 is always the first cpu to
initialize the watchdog, and the last to stop its watchdog thread. That
is not the case for initializing if cpu 0 has been removed and added. The
removal case has never been correct because the smpboot code will remove
the watchdog threads starting with the lowest cpu number.
This patch adds watchdog_cpus to track the number of cpus with active NMI
watchdog threads so that the first and last thread can be used to set and
clear the value of firstcpu_err. firstcpu_err is set when the first
watchdog thread is enabled, and cleared when the last watchdog thread is
disabled.

On an overloaded system, it is possible that a change in the watchdog
threshold can be delayed long enough to trigger a false positive.
This can easily be achieved by having a cpu spinning indefinitely on a
task, while another cpu updates watchdog threshold.
What happens is while trying to park the watchdog threads, the hrtimers
on the other cpus trigger and reprogram themselves with the new slower
watchdog threshold. Meanwhile, the nmi watchdog is still programmed
with the old faster threshold.
Because the one cpu is blocked, it prevents the thread parking on the
other cpus from completing, which is needed to shutdown the nmi watchdog
and reprogram it correctly. As a result, a false positive from the nmi
watchdog is reported.
Fix this by setting a park_in_progress flag to block all lockups until
the parking is complete.
Fix provided by Ulrich Obergfell.

Separate hardlockup code from watchdog.c and move it to watchdog_hld.c.
It is mostly straight forward. Remove everything inside
CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTORS. This code will go to file watchdog_hld.c.
Also update the makefile accordigly.
