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.
