      x86, nmi_watchdog: Remove all stub function calls from old nmi_watchdog · 072b198a
      Don Zickus authored
      Now that the bulk of the old nmi_watchdog is gone, remove all
      the stub variables and hooks associated with it.
      
      This touches lots of files mainly because of how the io_apic
      nmi_watchdog was implemented.  Now that the io_apic nmi_watchdog
      is forever gone, remove all its fingers.
      
      Most of this code was not being exercised by virtue of
      nmi_watchdog != NMI_IO_APIC, so there shouldn't be anything to
      risky here.

      x86, nmi_watchdog: Remove the old nmi_watchdog · 5f2b0ba4
      Don Zickus authored
      Now that we have a new nmi_watchdog that is more generic and
      sits on top of the perf subsystem, we really do not need the old
      nmi_watchdog any more.
      
      In addition, the old nmi_watchdog doesn't really work if you are
      using the default clocksource, hpet.  The old nmi_watchdog code
      relied on local apic interrupts to determine if the cpu is still
      alive.  With hpet as the clocksource, these interrupts don't
      increment any more and the old nmi_watchdog triggers false
      postives.
      
      This piece removes the old nmi_watchdog code and stubs out any
      variables and functions calls.  The stubs are the same ones used
      by the new nmi_watchdog code, so it should be well tested.
