For NMI watchdog, I found some explanation from google. What could happen if I disable nmi_watchdog permanently? Imagine your system locks up. There's 2 possibilities now: 1) You have a hardware NMI button (some servers do). Push it, then the kernel (if properly configured) dumps a trace to console and reboots. 2) Your kernel reaches a halting state that can't be interrupted by any other method. In this case, the watchdog can reboot the machine.
