Hello,
When trap_to_gdb in common/gdbstub.c returns, it calls watchdog_enable(). However, the watchdog functionality is an option controlled in arch/x86/setup.c using the opt_watchdog boot parameter, and currently defaults to 'off'. When the user resumes from a gdb session over the serial port, the watchdog will be enabled regardless of the 'opt_watchdog' flag. This patch addresses this issue by propagating the optional parameter to arch/x86/nmi.c and conditionally enabling/disabling the watchdog based on the value of the now global 'opt_watchdog' flag.
