watchdog: move definition of 'watchdog_proc_mutex' outside of proc_dowatchdog()

Browse Source 
This series removes proc_dowatchdog().  Since multiple new functions need
the 'watchdog_proc_mutex' to serialize access to the watchdog parameters
in /proc/sys/kernel, move the mutex outside of any function.
