x86: nmi - fix incorrect NMI watchdog used by default
The commit commit 4b82b277707a39b97271439c475f186f63ec4692 Author: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com> Date: Sat May 24 19:36:35 2008 +0400 set nmi_watchdog to NMI_IO_APIC as by default. This causes hangs on some machines with buggy watchdogs. Fix it - i.e. restore old behaviour. Thanks to Sitsofe Wheeler and Adrian Bunk for catching the problem and Maciej W. Rozycki for explanation what is going on there. Signed-off-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com> CC: Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
