watchdog: Boot-disable by default on full dynticks When the watchdog runs, it prevents the full dynticks CPUs from stopping their tick because the hard lockup detector uses perf events internally, which in turn rely on the periodic tick. Since this is a rather confusing behaviour that is not easy to track down and identify for those who want to test CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL, let's default disable the watchdog on boot time when full dynticks is enabled. The user can still enable it later on runtime using proc or sysctl.
