Subject[PATCH 1/4] watchdog: fix rounding issues in get_sample_period()
Date
In get_sample_period(), softlockup_thresh is integer divided by 5 before
the multiplication by NSEC_PER_SEC. This results in softlockup_thresh
being rounded down to the nearest integer multiple of 5.

For example, a softlockup_thresh of 4 rounds down to 0.
