watchdog: Mark watchdog_hrtimer to expire in hard interrupt context
The watchdog hrtimer must expire in hard interrupt context even on
PREEMPT_RT=y kernels as otherwise the hard/softlockup detection logic would
not work.

No functional change.

[ tglx: Split out from larger combo patch. Added changelog ]
