The code currently in "watchdog_hld.c" is for detecting hardlockups using perf, as evidenced by the line in the Makefile that only compiles this file if CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF is defined. Rename the file to prepare for the buddy hardlockup detector, which doesn't use perf. It could be argued that the new name makes it less obvious that this is a hardlockup detector. While true, it's not hard to remember that the "perf" detector is always a hardlockup detector and it's nice not to have names that are too convoluted.
