Subject: [RFC PATCH v4 12/21] watchdog/hardlockup/hpet: Adjust timer expiration on the number of monitored CPUs
Each CPU should be monitored for hardlockups every watchdog_thresh seconds.
Since all the CPUs in the system are monitored by the same timer and the
timer interrupt is rotated among the monitored CPUs, the timer must expire
every watchdog_thresh/N seconds; where N is the number of monitored CPUs.
Use the new member of struct hld_data, ticks_per_cpu, to store the
aforementioned quantity.
The ticks-per-CPU quantity is updated every time the number of monitored
CPUs changes: when the watchdog is enabled or disabled for a specific CPU.
If the timer is used in periodic mode, it needs to be adjusted to reflect
the new expected expiration.
