[PATCH 3/3] kvm: ensure hard lockup detection is disabled by default

[Andrew Jones <drjones@redhat.com>]

From: Ulrich Obergfell <uobergfe@redhat.com>

Use watchdog_enable_hardlockup_detector() to set hard lockup detection's
default value to false. It's risky to run this detection in a guest, as
false positives are easy to trigger, especially if the host is
overcommitted.
