sparc: implement watchdog_nmi_enable and watchdog_nmi_disable

Implement functions watchdog_nmi_enable and watchdog_nmi_disable to
enable/disable nmi watchdog.  Sparc uses arch specific nmi watchdog
handler.  Currently, we do not have a way to enable/disable nmi watchdog
dynamically.  With these patches we can enable or disable arch specific
nmi watchdogs using proc or sysctl interface.

Example commands.
To enable: echo 1 >  /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
To disable: echo 0 >  /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog

It can also achieved using the sysctl parameter kernel.nmi_watchdog
