The permissions for the kernel.nmi_watchdog sysctl have always been
set at compile time despite the fact that a watchdog can fail to
probe. Let's fix this and set the permissions based on whether the
hardlockup detector actually probed.

Fixes: a994a3147e4c ("watchdog/hardlockup/perf: Implement init time detection 
of perf")
