watchdog: Make it work under full dynticks
A perf event can be used without forcing the tick to stay alive if it doesn't use a frequency but a sample period and if it doesn't throttle (raise storm of events). Since the lockup detector neither use a perf event frequency nor should ever throttle due to its high period, it can now run concurrently with the full dynticks feature. So remove the hack that disabled the watchdog.
