Cool, this looks pretty nice at a quick glance. sparc and powerpc at
least have their own NMI watchdogs, it would be good to have those
converted as well.

Is hpet a cross platform thing, or just x86? We should avoid
proliferation of files under kernel/ I think, so with these watchdog
driver structs then maybe implementations could go in drivers/ or
arch/

Thanks,
