[PATCH 2/3] watchdog: fix sysctl consistency

[Marcin Slusarz]

If it was not possible to enable watchdog for any cpu, switch watchdog_enabled
back to 0, because it's visible via kernel.watchdog sysctl.

[PATCH 1/3] watchdog: Fix broken nowatchdog logic

[Don Zickus]

From: Marcin Slusarz <marcin.slusarz@gmail.com>

Passing nowatchdog to kernel disables 2 things: creation of watchdog threads
AND initialization of percpu watchdog_hrtimer. As hrtimers are initialized
only at boot it's not possible to enable watchdog later - for me all watchdog
threads started to eat 100% of CPU time, but they could just crash.

Additionally, even if these threads would start properly,
watchdog_disable_all_cpus was guarded by no_watchdog check, so you
couldn't disable watchdog.

To fix this, remove no_watchdog variable and use already existing
watchdog_enabled variable.
