Thomas Gleixner e31d6883f2 watchdog/core, powerpc: Lock cpus across reconfiguration
Instead of dropping the cpu hotplug lock after stopping NMI watchdog and
threads and reaquiring for restart, the code and the protection rules
become more obvious when holding cpu hotplug lock across the full
reconfiguration.
