   [WATCHDOG] correct sysfs name for watchdog devices
   
   While looking for possible candidates for our udev.rules package,
   I found a few odd ->name properties. /dev/watchdog has minor 130
   according to devices.txt. Since all watchdog drivers use the
   misc_register() call, they will end up in /sys/class/misc/$foo.
   udev may create the /dev/watchdog node if the driver is loaded.
   I dont have such a device, so I cant test it.
   The drivers below provide names with spaces and even with / in it.
   Not a big deal, but apps may expect /dev/watchdog.
