Subject: [PATCH 1/7] watchdog/hardlockup: Sort hardlockup detector related config values a logical way

There are four possible variants of hardlockup detectors:

  + buddy: available when SMP is set.

  + perf: available when HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF is set.

  + arch-specific: available when HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH is set.

  + sparc64 special variant: available when HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG is set
	and HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH is not set.

Only one hardlockup detector can be compiled in. The selection is done
using quite complex dependencies between several CONFIG variables.
The following patches will try to make it more straightforward.

As a first step, reorder the definitions of the various CONFIG variables.
The logical order is:

   1. HAVE_* variables define available variants. They are typically
      defined in the arch/ config files.

   2. HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR y/n variable defines whether the hardlockup
      detector is enabled at all.

   3. HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PREFER_BUDDY y/n variable defines whether
      the buddy detector should be preferred over the perf one.
      Note that the arch specific variants are always preferred when
      available.

   4. HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF/BUDDY variables define whether the given
      detector is enabled in the end.

   5. HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_NON_ARCH and HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_NON_ARCH
      are temporary variables that are going to be removed in
      a followup patch.

The patch just shuffles the definitions. It should not change the existing
behavior.
