x86, nmi_watchdog: Remove the old nmi_watchdog

Browse source 
Now that we have a new nmi_watchdog that is more generic and
sits on top of the perf subsystem, we really do not need the old
nmi_watchdog any more.

In addition, the old nmi_watchdog doesn't really work if you are
using the default clocksource, hpet.  The old nmi_watchdog code
relied on local apic interrupts to determine if the cpu is still
alive.  With hpet as the clocksource, these interrupts don't
increment any more and the old nmi_watchdog triggers false
postives.

This piece removes the old nmi_watchdog code and stubs out any
variables and functions calls.  The stubs are the same ones used
by the new nmi_watchdog code, so it should be well tested.
