watchdog/hardlockup: make HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG sparc64-specific

Browse Source 
There are several hardlockup detector implementations and several Kconfig
values which allow selection and build of the preferred one.

CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR was introduced by the commit 23637d477c
("lockup_detector: Introduce CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR") in v2.6.36.
It was a preparation step for introducing the new generic perf hardlockup
detector.

The existing arch-specific variants did not support the to-be-created
generic build configurations, sysctl interface, etc. This distinction
was made explicit by the commit 4a7863cc2e ("x86, nmi_watchdog:
Remove ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG and rely on CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR")
in v2.6.38.

CONFIG_HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG was introduced by the commit d314d74c69
("nmi watchdog: do not use cpp symbol in Kconfig") in v3.4-rc1. It replaced
the above mentioned ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG. At that time, it was still used
by three architectures, namely blackfin, mn10300, and sparc.

The support for blackfin and mn10300 architectures has been completely
dropped some time ago. And sparc is the only architecture with the historic
NMI watchdog at the moment.

And the old sparc implementation is really special. It is always built on
sparc64. It used to be always enabled until the commit 7a5c8b57ce
("sparc: implement watchdog_nmi_enable and watchdog_nmi_disable") added
in v4.10-rc1.

There are only few locations where the sparc64 NMI watchdog interacts
with the generic hardlockup detectors code:

  + implements arch_touch_nmi_watchdog() which is called from the generic
    touch_nmi_watchdog()

  + implements watchdog_hardlockup_enable()/disable() to support
    /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog

  + is always preferred over other generic watchdogs, see
    CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR

  + includes asm/nmi.h into linux/nmi.h because some sparc-specific
    functions are needed in sparc-specific code which includes
    only linux/nmi.h.

The situation became more complicated after the commit 05a4a95279
("kernel/watchdog: split up config options") and commit 2104180a53
("powerpc/64s: implement arch-specific hardlockup watchdog") in v4.13-rc1.
They introduced HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH. It was used for powerpc
specific hardlockup detector. It was compatible with the perf one
regarding the general boot, sysctl, and programming interfaces.

HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH was defined as a superset of
HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG. It made some sense because all arch-specific
detectors had some common requirements, namely:

  + implemented arch_touch_nmi_watchdog()
  + included asm/nmi.h into linux/nmi.h
  + defined the default value for /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog

But it actually has made things pretty complicated when the generic
buddy hardlockup detector was added. Before the generic perf detector
was newer supported together with an arch-specific one. But the buddy
detector could work on any SMP system. It means that an architecture
could support both the arch-specific and buddy detector.

As a result, there are few tricky dependencies. For example,
CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR depends on:

  ((HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF || HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_BUDDY) && !HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG) || HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH

The problem is that the very special sparc implementation is defined as:

  HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG && !HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH

Another problem is that the meaning of HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG is far from clear
without reading understanding the history.

Make the logic less tricky and more self-explanatory by making
HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG specific for the sparc64 implementation. And rename it to
HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_SPARC64.

Note that HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PREFER_BUDDY, HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF,
and HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_BUDDY may conflict only with
HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH. They depend on HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR
and it is not longer enabled when HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG is set.
