SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/2] watchdog, hpwdt: Remove priority option for NMI callback

There are only two queues, NMI_LOCAL and NMI_UNKNOWN. The difference is
NMI_LOCAL has handlers that can determine if they are the NMI source,
which is needed because _every_ handler is executed on every NMI.
NMI_UNKNOWN is reserved for handlers that just assume the NMI is theirs.

Cheers,
Don
