[PATCH] watchdog/core: Fix AA deadlock due to watchdog holding cpu_hotplug_lock and wait for wq

[Luo Gengkun <luogengkun@huaweicloud.com>]

We found an AA deadlock problem as shown belowed:

TaskA				TaskB				WatchDog			system_wq

...
css_killed_work_fn:
P(cgroup_mutex)
...
								...
								__lockup_detector_reconfigure:
								P(cpu_hotplug_lock.read)
								...
				...
				cpu_up:
				percpu_down_write:
				P(cpu_hotplug_lock.write)
												...
												cgroup_bpf_release:
												P(cgroup_mutex)
								smp_call_on_cpu:
								Wait system_wq

cpuset_css_offline:
P(cpu_hotplug_lock.read)

WatchDog is waitting for system_wq, who is waitting for cgroup_mutex, to finish
the jobs, but the owner of the cgroup_mutex is waitting for cpu_hotplug_lock.
The key point is the cpu_hotplug_lock, cause the system_wq may be waitting other
lock. It seems unhealthy to hold a lock when waitting system_wq, because we
never know what jobs are system_wq doing. So I fix this by replace cpu_read_lock/unlock
with cpu_hotplug_disable/enable to prevent cpu offline/online.

Fixes: e31d6883f21c ("watchdog/core, powerpc: Lock cpus across reconfiguration")
