[PATCH 2/2] powerpc/watchdog: ensure watchdog data accesses are protected

[Laurent Dufour <ldufour@linux.ibm.com>]

The wd_smp_cpus_pending CPU mask should be accessed under the protection of
the __wd_smp_lock.

This prevents false alarm to be raised when the system is under an heavy
stress. This has been seen while doing LPM on large system with a big
workload.
