kernel/watchdog: split up config options 

Split SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR from LOCKUP_DETECTOR, and split
HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF from HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR.

LOCKUP_DETECTOR implies the general boot, sysctl, and programming
interfaces for the lockup detectors.

An architecture that wants to use a hard lockup detector must define
HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF or HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH.

Alternatively an arch can define HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG, which provides the
minimum arch_touch_nmi_watchdog, and it otherwise does its own thing and
does not implement the LOCKUP_DETECTOR interfaces.

sparc is unusual in that it has started to implement some of the
interfaces, but not fully yet.  It should probably be converted to a full
HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH.

Hardlockups are bugs that cause the CPU to loop in kernel mode
for more than 10 seconds, without letting other interrupts have a
chance to run. The current stack trace is displayed upon detection
and the system will stay locked up.
The overhead should be minimal. A periodic hrtimer runs to
generate interrupts and kick the watchdog task every 4 seconds.
An NMI is generated every 10 seconds or so to check for hardlockups.
The frequency of hrtimer and NMI events and the soft and hard lockup
thresholds can be controlled through the sysctl watchdog_thresh.
