[PATCH v3] rtc: ds1307: provide an indication that the watchdog has fired

From: Chris Packham
Date: Sun Jul 26 2020 - 23:46:27 EST


There's not much feedback when the ds1388 watchdog fires. Generally it
yanks on the reset line and the board reboots. Capture the fact that the
watchdog has fired in the past so that userspace can retrieve it via
WDIOC_GETBOOTSTATUS. This should help distinguish a watchdog triggered
reset from a power interruption.

Changes in v3:
- Check for watchdog flag in ds1307_wdt_register()
Changes in v2:
- Set bootstatus to WDIOF_CARDRESET and let userspace decide what to do with
the information.
