Hi Andrew,

I (finaly) converted the watchdog-mm bitkeeper tree to a git repository:
rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wim/linux-2.6-watchdog-mm.git

The tree contains the following patches at this moment (in reverse order):

[WATCHDOG] i6300esb-set_correct_reload_register_bit

This patch writes into bit 8 of the reload register to perform the
correct 'Reload Sequence' instead of writing into bit 4 of Watchdog for
Intel 6300ESB chipset.

[WATCHDOG] i6300esb.c-WDT_ENABLE-bug

This patch sets the WDT_ENABLE bit of the Lock Register to enable the
watchdog and WDT_LOCK bit only if nowayout is set. The old code always
sets the WDT_LOCK bit of watchdog timer for Intel 6300ESB chipset. So, we
end up locking the watchdog instead of enabling it.

[WATCHDOG] i6300esb.patch

From: David Hardeman <david@xxxxxxxx>

I wrote earlier to the list[1] asking for a driver for the watchdog
included in the 6300ESB chipset. I got a 2.4 driver via private email
from Ross Biro which I've changed into what I hope resembles a 2.6
driver (which was done by looking a lot at the watchdog drivers
already in the 2.6 tree).

I've attached the result, and I'm hoping to get some feedback on the
coding as a first step. I can't actually test it on the hardware
right now as I won't have physical access until April. So my own tests
have been limited to "compiles-without-warnings" and
"can-be-insmodded-in-other-machine-without-oops".

[WATCHDOG] w83627hf_wdt.c-initialized_bios_bug

Attached is a small update to the w83627hf watchdog driver
to initialise appropriately if it was already initialised
in the BIOS. On tyan motherboards for e.g. you can init
the watchdog to 4 mins, then when the driver is loaded it
sets the watchdog to "seconds" mode, and then machine will
reboot within 4 seconds. So this patch resets the timeout
to the configured value if the watchdog is already running.

[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.
