watchdog: hpwdt: Unregister NMI events on exit.
But the initialization message was not modified.
So it still shows

This "default = 0/OFF" message may confuse users.
Fix it as "default = 1/ON".

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives

This patch is being submitted to output a general string when the panic comes
in that informs the user of the possible places to look for the source of the
NMI. Because various systems log the message in different places this would
give a single display of where to go look instead of code that acts on all
these different server names or IDs.

I just can't find any value in MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(WATCHDOG_MINOR)
and MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(TEMP_MINOR) statements.
Either the device is enumerated and the driver already has a module
alias (e.g. PCI, USB etc.) that will get the right driver loaded
automatically.
Or the device is not enumerated and loading its driver will lead to
more or less intrusive hardware poking. Such hardware poking should be
limited to a bare minimum, so the user should really decide which
drivers should be tried and in what order. Trying them all in
arbitrary order can't do any good.
On top of that, loading that many drivers at once bloats the kernel
log. Also many drivers will stay loaded afterward, bloating the output
of "lsmod" and wasting memory. Some modules (cs5535_mfgpt which gets
loaded as a dependency) can't even be unloaded!
If defining char-major-10-130 is needed then it should happen in
user-space.

This patch is to prevent hpwdt from loading on any auxilary iLO devices defined
after the initial (or main) iLO device. All auxilary iLO devices will have a
subsystem device ID set to 0x1979 in order for hpwdt to differentiate between
the two types.

kdump can be interrupted by watchdog timer when the timer is left
activated on the crash kernel. Changed the hpwdt driver to disable
watchdog timer at boot-time. This assures that watchdog timer is
disabled until /dev/watchdog is opened, and prevents watchdog timer
to be left running on the crash kernel.

In discussions with Thomas Mingarelli about hpwdt, he explained
to me some issues they were some when using their virtual NMI
button to test the hpwdt driver.
It turns out the virtual NMI button used on HP's machines do no
send unknown NMIs but instead send IO_CHK NMIs. The way the
kernel code is written, the hpwdt driver can not register itself
against that type of NMI and therefore can not successfully
capture system information before panic'ing.
To solve this I created two new NMI queues to allow driver to
register against the IO_CHK and SERR NMIs. Or in the hpwdt all
three (if you include unknown NMIs too).
The change is straightforward and just mimics what the unknown
NMI does.

The NMI_UNKNOWN bucket only allows for one function to register
to it. The reason for that is because only functions which can
not determine if the NMI belongs to them or not should register
and would like to assume/swallow any NMI they see.
As a result it doesn't make sense to let more than one function
like this register. In fact, letting a second function fail
allows us to know that more than one function is going to
swallow NMIs on the current system. This is better than silently
being ignored.
Therefore hpwdt's priority mechanism doesn't make sense any
more. They will be always first on the NMI_UNKNOWN queue, if
they register.
Removing this parameter cleans up the code and simplifies things
for the next patch which changes how nmis are registered.
