NMIs received during the crash path are problematic as hpwdt_pretimeout
handling of the NMI would cause a reentry into kdump.
The situation is complicated in that I/O errors can be signaled as NMI
circumventing hpwdt_pretimeout's attempt to not claim NMI not associated
with either the WDT or the iLO NMI switch. These NMI can additionally
cause a secondary NMI which cause the system to hang.
By disabling pretimeout and hpwdtimeout in crash path we both reduce
the risk of receiving an NMI and simuletaneously leave the WDT running
(if it was already in use) to allow the WDT to break the system out of
hangs by the WDT reset.

Make whether or not the hpwdt watchdog delivers a pretimeout NMI
programable by the user.
The underlying iLO hardware is programmable as to whether or not
a pre-timeout NMI is delivered to the system before the iLO resets
the system. However, the iLO does not allow for programming the
length of time that NMI is delivered before the system is reset.
By watchdog API, in hpwdt_set_pretimeout a val == 0 disables the NMI.
When val != 0, hpwdt_set_pretimeout will enable the pretimeout NMI
provided the current timeout is greator than the HW specified
pretimeout length. Otherwise an error is returned.
In set_timeout, if the new timeout is <= an already established pretimeout,
the pretimeout is canceled. This matches the action watchdog_set_timeout
in the watchdog core would do if an hpwdt specific set_timeout
function wasn't specified.

The intent of this parameter is unclear and it sets up a
race between the reset of the system by ASR and crashdump.
The length of time between receipt of the pretimeout NMI
and the ASR reset of the system is fixed by hardware.
Turning the parameter off doesn't necessairly prevent a crash dump.
Also, having the ASR reset occur while the system is crash dumping
doesn't imply that the dump was hung given the short duration
between the NMI and the reset.
This parameter is not a substitute for having a architected watchdog

Gen8 and prior Proliant systems supported the "CRU" interface
to firmware. This interfaces allows linux to "call back" into firmware
to source the cause of an NMI. This feature isn't fully utilized
as the actual source of the NMI isn't printed, the driver only
indicates that the source couldn't be determined when the call
fails.
With the advent of Gen9, iCRU replaces the CRU. The call back
feature is no longer available in firmware. To be compatible and
not attempt to call back into firmware on system not supporting CRU,
the SMBIOS table is consulted to determine if it is safe to
make the call back or not.
This results in about half of the driver code being devoted
to either making CRU calls or determing if it is safe to make
CRU calls. As noted, the driver isn't really using the results of
the CRU calls.
Furthermore, as a consequence of the Spectre security issue, the
BIOS/EFI calls are being wrapped into Spectre-disabling section.
Removing the call back in hpwdt_pretimeout assists in this effort.
As the CRU sourcing of the NMI isn't required for handling the
NMI and there are security concerns with making the call back, remove
the legacy (pre Gen9) NMI sourcing and the DMI code to determine if
the system had the CRU interface.

I just can't find any value in MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(WATCHDOG_MINOR)
and MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(TEMP_MINOR) statements.
Either the device is enumerated and the driver already has a module
alias (e.g. PCI, USB etc.) that will get the right driver loaded
automatically.
Or the device is not enumerated and loading its driver will lead to
more or less intrusive hardware poking. Such hardware poking should be
limited to a bare minimum, so the user should really decide which
drivers should be tried and in what order. Trying them all in
arbitrary order can't do any good.
On top of that, loading that many drivers at once bloats the kernel
log. Also many drivers will stay loaded afterward, bloating the output
of "lsmod" and wasting memory. Some modules (cs5535_mfgpt which gets
loaded as a dependency) can't even be unloaded!
