    clocksource.c: use init_timer_deferrable for clocksource_watchdog
    
    clocksource_watchdog can use a deferrable timer - reduces wakeups from
    idle per second.

The watchdog timer needs to run with the specified interval. Otherwise
it will miss the possible wrap of the watchdog clocksource.
