I'm not sure this is a good idea - people with systems where the
watchdog doesn't work will likely start complaining about why it
doesn't work, as that's going to be always visible in the log.

Furthermore, a timeout of 5 min is just unacceptably large. If we
really still have problems with the 5 sec timeout, we should fix
those rather than bumping the timeout - no timer events for 5 sec
is already way too long.
