Lars Poeschel b2102eb36e watchdog: omap_wdt: early_enable module parameter
Add a early_enable module parameter to the omap_wdt that starts the
watchdog on module insertion. The default value is 0 which does not
start the watchdog - which also does not change the behavior if the
parameter is not given.

Lars Poeschel a47911e99f watchdog: docs: omap_wdt also understands nowayout
The omap_wdt kernel driver also understands the nowayout module
parameter. This updates the watchdog-parameters.txt to reflect this fact.

Marc van der Wal 0bcd0b6a47 watchdog: it87_wdt: Work around non-working CIR interrupts
On some hardware platforms, the it87_wdt watchdog resets the machine
despite the watchdog daemon running and writing to /dev/watchdog.

This is due to Consumer IR buffer underrun interrupts being used as
triggers to reset the timer.  On some buggy hardware implementations
such as the iEi AFL-12A-N270 single-board computer, this method does
not work.

However, resetting the timer by writing its original timeout value in
its configuration register over and over again suppresses the unwanted
reboots.

Add a module option (nocir), 0 by default in order not to break existing
setups.  Setting it to 1 enables the workaround.

Fixes bug #42801 <https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42801>.
Tested primarily on Linux 3.5.7, applies cleanly on Linux 3.13.5.

Andrew Chew c33a15974c watchdog: Add tegra watchdog
Add a driver for the hardware watchdogs in NVIDIA Tegra SoCs (Tegra30 and
later).  This driver will configure one watchdog timer that will reset the
system in the case of a watchdog timeout.

This driver binds to the nvidia,tegra30-timer device node and gets its
register base from there.

Viresh Kumar 6e63a3a294 watchdog: delete mpcore_wdt driver
Interrupt request doesn't use the right API: The TWD watchdog uses a per-cpu
interrupt (usually interrupt #30), and the GIC configuration should flag it as
such. With this setup, request_irq() should fail, and the right API is
request_percpu_irq(), together with enable_percpu_irq()/disable_percpu_irq().

Nothing ensures the userspace ioctl() will end-up kicking the watchdog on the
right CPU.

There are no users of this driver since a long time and it makes more sense to
get rid of it as nobody is looking to fix it.

In case somebody wakes up after this has been removed and needs it, please
revert this driver and pick these updates (These were never pushed to mainline):

Move the limited watchdog driver help from kernel-parameters.txt
to Documentation/watchdog/watchdog-parameters.txt and add info to it
for all watchdog drivers except the ones that have driver-specific
files already.

Correct minor comments and MODULE_PARM_DESC() text in 2 places.
