    watchdog: fix hpwdt Kconfig regression in 3.0-rc
    
    Remove Kconfig regression caused by commit
    a4616153deae053b29a2b7dd9ec4b2a225accfc5 "watchdog: hpwdt: build hpwdt as
    module by default with NMI_DECODING enabled"
    
    With the above change applied, hpwdt will be enabled unconditionally by just
    entering the Watchdog subscreen in menuconfig. Since this driver is not
    essential to boot any box it should remain disabled until it gets manually
    enabled, just like all other drivers.
