[WATCHDOG] i8xx_tco - mark for removal patch

[Wim Van Sebroeck]

Hi all,

I'm planning to remove the i8xx_tco watchdog driver
(since we now have the iTCO_wdt driver that has a broader scope).

If no-one objects I will sent the below patch to Linus for inclusion.
(it adds the driver to the feature-removal-schedule list and defaults
CONFIG_I8XX_TCO to n).

Thanks,
Wim.
