watchdog: export lockup_detector_reconfigure
[ Upstream commit 7c56a8733d0a2a4be2438a7512566e5ce552fccf ]
In some circumstances it may be interesting to reconfigure the watchdog
from inside the kernel.
On PowerPC, this may helpful before and after a LPAR migration (LPM) is
initiated, because it implies some latencies, watchdog, and especially NMI
watchdog is expected to be triggered during this operation. Reconfiguring
the watchdog with a factor, would prevent it to happen too frequently
during LPM.
Rename lockup_detector_reconfigure() as __lockup_detector_reconfigure() and
create a new function lockup_detector_reconfigure() calling
__lockup_detector_reconfigure() under the protection of watchdog_mutex.
