In preparation for the buddy hardlockup detector where the CPU
checking for lockup might not be the currently running CPU, add a
"cpu" parameter to watchdog_hardlockup_check().
As part of this change, make hrtimer_interrupts an atomic_t since now
the CPU incrementing the value and the CPU reading the value might be
different. Technially this could also be done with just READ_ONCE and
WRITE_ONCE, but atomic_t feels a little cleaner in this case.
While hrtimer_interrupts is made atomic_t, we change
hrtimer_interrupts_saved from "unsigned long" to "int". The "int" is
needed to match the data type backing atomic_t for hrtimer_interrupts.
Even if this changes us from 64-bits to 32-bits (which I don't think
is true for most compilers), it doesn't really matter. All we ever do
is increment it every few seconds and compare it to an old value so
32-bits is fine (even 16-bits would be). The "signed" vs "unsigned"
also doesn't matter for simple equality comparisons.
hrtimer_interrupts_saved is _not_ switched to atomic_t nor even
accessed with READ_ONCE / WRITE_ONCE. The hrtimer_interrupts_saved is
always consistently accessed with the same CPU. NOTE: with the
upcoming "buddy" detector there is one special case. When a CPU goes
offline/online then we can change which CPU is the one to consistently
access a given instance of hrtimer_interrupts_saved. We still can't
end up with a partially updated hrtimer_interrupts_saved, however,
because we end up petting all affected CPUs to make sure the new and
old CPU can't end up somehow read/write hrtimer_interrupts_saved at
the same time.

Changes in v5:
- Don't dump stack on the buddy CPU if we fail to backtrace the hung CPU.
- Use atomic_t for hrtimer_interrupts.
Changes in v4:
- ("Add a "cpu" param to watchdog_hardlockup_check()") new for v4.
