watchdog/core, powerpc: Make watchdog_nmi_reconfigure() two stage
Both the perf reconfiguration and the powerpc watchdog_nmi_reconfigure() need to be done in two steps. 1) Stop all NMIs 2) Read the new parameters and start NMIs Right now watchdog_nmi_reconfigure() is a combination of both. To allow a clean reconfiguration add a 'run' argument and split the functionality in powerpc.

- * watchdog_nmi_reconfigure can be implemented to be notified after any
- * watchdog configuration change. The arch hardlockup watchdog should
- * respond to the following variables:
+/**
+ * watchdog_nmi_reconfigure - Optional function to reconfigure NMI watchdogs
+ * @run: If false stop the watchdogs on all enabled CPUs
+ * If true start the watchdogs on all enabled CPUs
+ *
+ * The core call order is:
+ * watchdog_nmi_reconfigure(false);
+ * update_variables();
+ * watchdog_nmi_reconfigure(true);
+ *
+ * The second call which starts the watchdogs again guarantees that the
+ * following variables are stable across the call.
* - watchdog_enabled
* - watchdog_thresh
* - watchdog_cpumask
- * - sysctl_hardlockup_all_cpu_backtrace
- * - hardlockup_panic
+ *
+ * After the call the variables can be changed again.
