When configured to inject an NMI, watchdog_perform_action() may cause
the BQL to be temporarily relinquished (inject_nmi() → ... →
s390_nmi() → s390_cpu_restart() → run_on_cpu()). When the guest issues
diag 288 again in response to the NMI, the diag 288 operation will
race against wdt_diag288_reset(). Depending on scheduler behaviour,
wdt_diag288_reset() may be run after the guest issued a diag 288
Init. As a result, we will cancel the timer the guest just set up. The
effect observed by the guest is that a second expiry does not trigger
the watchdog action and diag 288 Change operations fail.
Fix this by resetting the timer _before_ invoking the action.
