Yeah, you're right. Fixed in this patch (v3).

This restores the previous behavior of softlock_thresh.
Currently, setting watchdog_thresh to zero causes the watchdog kthreads to consume a lot of CPU.
In addition, the logic of proc_dowatchdog_thresh and proc_dowatchdog_enabled has been factored into proc_dowatchdog.
