 * mp_watchdog hijacks the idle thread on a specified CPU, prevents new work
 * from being scheduled there, and uses it as a "watchdog" to detect kernel
 * failure on other CPUs.  This is made reasonable by inclusion of logical
 * processors in Xeon hardware.  The watchdog is configured by setting the
 * debug.watchdog sysctl/tunable to the CPU of interest.  A callout will then
 * begin executing reseting a timer that is gradually lowered by the watching
 * thread.  If the timer reaches 0, the watchdog fires by ether dropping
 * directly to the debugger, or by sending an NMI IPI to the boot processor.
 * This is a somewhat less efficient substitute for dedicated watchdog
 * hardware, but can be quite an effective tool for debugging hangs.
 *
 * XXXRW: This should really use the watchdog(9)/watchdog(4) framework, but
 * doesn't yet.
