Subject: [PATCHv2 0/4] watchdog_hld cleanup and async model for arm64

hard lockup detector is helpful to diagnose unpaired irq enable/disable.
Sumit has tried with a series, and the last one is V5 [1].
Since it lasts a long time without any update, I takes a retry, which
addresses the delay intialization of watchdog_hld.
( To: Sumit, I think the main body of [4/4] is contributed from you,so I
keep you as the author, please let me know if you dislike it and my
modification.)

There is an obstacle to integrate arm64 hw perf event into watchdog_hld.
When lockup_detector_init()->watchdog_nmi_probe(), on arm64, PMU is not
ready until device_initcall(armv8_pmu_driver_init).  And it is deeply
integrated with the driver model and cpuhp. Hence it is hard to push
the initialization of armv8_pmu_driver_init() before smp_init().

But it is easy to take an opposite approach by enabling watchdog_hld to
get the capability of PMU async. 
The async model is achieved by expanding watchdog_nmi_probe() with
-EBUSY, and a re-initializing work_struct which waits on a
wait_queue_head.

In this series, [1-2/4] are trivial cleanup. [3-4/4] is for this async
model.


v1 > v2:
    uplift the async model from hard lockup layer to watchdog layter.
The benefit is simpler code, the drawback is re-initialize means wasted
alloc/free.
