Subject: [PATCH V2,RESEND 0/4] kernel/watchdog: Modify the explanation and doc related to watchdog thread

"watchdog/%u" threads has be replaced by cpu_stop_work. The current 
description is extremely misleading, so we need to modify the 
explanation and documentation related to this.

Wang Qing (4):
  kernel: watchdog: Modify the explanation related to watchdog thread
  doc: watchdog: Delete the explanation about "watchdog/%u".
  doc: watchdog: Modify the explanation related to watchdog thread
  doc: watchdog: Modify the doc related to "watchdog/%u"
