    x86/nmi: Check MSR_MISC_ENABLE for all Intel platforms
    
    Right now it's only checked in setup_p4_watchdog(), and not in
    setup_p6_watchdog().
    
    Perform the check in the common Intel path in setup_apic_nmi_watchdog(), and
    pass misc_enable as a parameter into setup_p4_watchdog() to avoid reading it
    twice.
    
    Fixes: 0dfba864fbff ("NMI watchdog support in Xen.")
