x86, NMI: Add back unknown_nmi_panic and nmi_watchdog sysctls
Originally adapted from Huang Ying's patch which moved the
unknown_nmi_panic to the traps.c file.  Because the old nmi
watchdog was deleted before this change happened, the
unknown_nmi_panic sysctl was lost.  This re-adds it.

Also, the nmi_watchdog sysctl was re-implemented and its
documentation updated accordingly.

 			Format: [panic,][num]
-			Valid num: 0,1,2
+			Valid num: 0
 			0 - turn nmi_watchdog off
-			1 - use the IO-APIC timer for the NMI watchdog
-			2 - use the local APIC for the NMI watchdog using
-			a performance counter. Note: This will use one
-			performance counter and the local APIC's performance
-			vector.
 			When panic is specified, panic when an NMI watchdog
 			timeout occurs.
 			This is useful when you use a panic=... timeout and
 			need the box quickly up again.
-			Instead of 1 and 2 it is possible to use the following
-			symbolic names: lapic and ioapic
-			Example: nmi_watchdog=2 or nmi_watchdog=panic,lapic
