[PATCH 0/6] watchdog and NMI IPI locking improvements

It was noticed that the watchdog was causing hangs and lockups in
some cases, hammering on the watchdog lock, so I've found a few
other improvements and bugs. Thanks to Paulus for finding the problem
and fixing the lock primitives (I fixed it a bit differently but the
idea is his).

Thanks,
Nick
