For BIOS and OS Agent watchdog, this system adopts standard design as specified IPMI 1.5, but for OS Load watchdog.
These enable, disable, interval time and action are controlled by OEM Set BIOS/OS Load WD Action Info command. All
this data will be kept inside BMC NV memory.

watchdog with pre-timeout SMI is not recommended.
