Ulrich Obergfell ef246a216b watchdog: introduce proc_watchdog_common() 
Three of four handlers for the watchdog parameters in /proc/sys/kernel
essentially have to do the same thing.

  if the parameter is being read {
    return the state of the corresponding bit(s) in 'watchdog_enabled'
  } else {
    set/clear the state of the corresponding bit(s) in 'watchdog_enabled'
    update the run state of the lockup detector(s)
  }

Hence, introduce a common function that can be called by those handlers.
The callers pass a 'bit mask' to this function to indicate which bit(s)
should be set/cleared in 'watchdog_enabled'.

This function handles an uncommon race with watchdog_nmi_enable() where a
concurrent update of 'watchdog_enabled' is possible.  We use 'cmpxchg' to
detect the concurrency.  [This avoids introducing a new spinlock or a
mutex to synchronize updates of 'watchdog_enabled'.  Using the same lock
or mutex in watchdog thread context and in system call context needs to be
considered carefully because it can make the code prone to deadlock
situations in connection with parking/unparking the watchdog threads.]
