[PATCH v5 18/18] arm64: Enable perf events based hard lockup detector

With the recent feature added to enable perf events to use pseudo NMIs
as interrupts on platforms which support GICv3 or later, its now been
possible to enable hard lockup detector (or NMI watchdog) on arm64
platforms. So enable corresponding support.
One thing to note here is that normally lockup detector is initialized
just after the early initcalls but PMU on arm64 comes up much later as
device_initcall(). To cope with that, override
arch_perf_nmi_is_available() to let the watchdog framework know PMU
not ready, and inform the framework to re-initialize lockup detection
once PMU has been initialized.

I yanked this patch from the mailing lists [1] into my series just to
make it easier to avoid conflicts between my series and the one adding
the arm64 perf hardlockup detector, in case someone wanted to test
them both together.
As part of making this match with my series, I needed to resolve
conflicts with the patch ("watchdog/hardlockup: Have the perf
hardlockup use __weak functions more cleanly"). This makes ${SUBJECT}
patch now depend on the patch ("watchdog/perf: Add a weak function for
an arch to detect if perf can use NMIs"). As talked about in that
patch, there may be better alternatives to accomplish the same thing.
As mentioned in the cover letter, I'm not really expecting this patch
to land together with the patches for the buddy detector. I included
it with my series simply for convenience of testing both series
together.
NOTE: the previous patch posted by Lecopzer pointed to Sumit's
patch [2] in the commit text but provided no context. I moved it to
this "after the cut" note.
