Introduce an optional hardware maximum timeout in the watchdog core.
The hardware maximum timeout can be lower than the maximum timeout.
Drivers can set the maximum hardware timeout value in the watchdog data
structure. If the configured timeout exceeds the maximum hardware timeout,
the watchdog core enables a timer function to assist sending keepalive
requests to the watchdog driver.

Hi Uwe,
thanks a lot for the Ack. I have v6 in the works, which changes recording
of last_keepalive when the watchdog is started. Does your Ack include that
change, or do you prefer to have another look ?
Thanks,
Guenter
