[patch 0/2] softlockup watchdog improvements
Here's couple of patches to improve the softlockup watchdog.
The first changes the softlockup timer from using jiffies to sched_clock()
as a timebase. Xen and VMI implement sched_clock() as counting unstolen
time, so time stolen by the hypervisor won't cause the watchdog to bite.
The second adds per-cpu enable flags for the watchdog timer. This allows
