watchdog: asm9260: remove __init and __exit annotations

The probe and release functions in this driver are marked
as __init and __exit, but this is wrong as indicated by this
Kbuild error message:

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x1d2308): Section mismatch in reference from the variable asm9260_wdt_driver to the function .init.text:asm9260_wdt_probe()

This removes the annotations, to make the sysfs unbind attribute

watchdog: Add support for creating driver specific sysfs attributes

The Zodiac watchdog driver attaches additional sysfs attributes to the
watchdog device. This has a number of problems: The watchdog device
lifetime differs from the driver lifetime, and the device structure
should therefore not be accessed from drivers. Also, creating sysfs
attributes after driver registration results in a potential race condition
if user space expects the attributes to exist but they don't exist yet.

Add support for creating driver specific sysfs attributes to the watchdog
core to solve the problems.

watchdog: Separate and maintain variables based on variable lifetime

All variables required by the watchdog core to manage a watchdog are
currently stored in struct watchdog_device. The lifetime of those
variables is determined by the watchdog driver. However, the lifetime
of variables used by the watchdog core differs from the lifetime of
struct watchdog_device. To remedy this situation, watchdog drivers
can implement ref and unref callbacks, to be used by the watchdog
core to lock struct watchdog_device in memory.

While this solves the immediate problem, it depends on watchdog drivers
to actually implement the ref/unref callbacks. This is error prone,
often not implemented in the first place, or not implemented correctly.

To solve the problem without requiring driver support, split the variables
in struct watchdog_device into two data structures - one for variables
associated with the watchdog driver, one for variables associated with
the watchdog core. With this approach, the watchdog core can keep track
of its variable lifetime and no longer depends on ref/unref callbacks
in the driver. As a side effect, some of the variables originally in
struct watchdog_driver are now private to the watchdog core and no longer
visible in watchdog drivers.

As a side effect of the changes made, an ioctl will now always fail
with -ENODEV after a watchdog device was unregistered with the character
device still open. Previously, it would only fail with -ENODEV in some
situations. Also, ioctl operations are now atomic from driver perspective.
With this change, it is now guaranteed that the driver will not unregister
a watchdog between a timeout change and the subsequent ping.

The 'ref' and 'unref' callbacks in struct watchdog_driver are no longer
used and marked as deprecated.

watchdog: Create watchdog device in watchdog_dev.c

The watchdog character device is currently created in watchdog_dev.c,
and the watchdog device in watchdog_core.c. This results in
cross-dependencies, since device creation needs to know the watchdog
character device number as well as the watchdog class, both of which
reside in watchdog_dev.c.

Create the watchdog device in watchdog_dev.c to simplify the code.

Inspired by earlier patch set from Damien Riegel.

watchdog: ts4800: add driver for TS-4800 watchdog

This watchdog is instantiated in a FPGA that is memory mapped. It is
made of only one register, called the feed register. Writing to this
register will re-arm the watchdog for a given time (and enable it if it
was disable). It can be disabled by writing a special value into it.

It is part of a syscon block, and the watchdog register offset in this
block varies from board to board. This offset is passed in the syscon
property after the phandle to the syscon node.

watchdog: dw_wdt: fix signedness bug in dw_wdt_top_in_seconds()

On 64bit platforms, "(1 << (16 + top)) / clk_get_rate(dw_wdt.clk)" is
sign-extended to 64bit then converted to unsigned 64bit, finally divide
the clk rate. If the top is the maximum TOP i.e 15, "(1 << (16 +15))"
will be sign-extended to 0xffffffff80000000, then converted to unsigned
0xffffffff80000000, which is a huge number, thus the final result is
wrong.

We fix this issue by giving usigned value(1U in this case) at first.

Let's assume clk rate is 25MHZ,
Before the patch:
dw_wdt_top_in_seconds(15) = -864612050

After the patch:
dw_wdt_top_in_seconds(15) = 85

watchdog: Read device status through sysfs attributes

This patch adds following attributes to watchdog device's sysfs interface
to read its different status.

* state - reads whether device is active or not
* identity - reads Watchdog device's identity string.
* timeout - reads current timeout.
* timeleft - reads timeleft before watchdog generates a reset
* bootstatus - reads status of the watchdog device at boot
* status - reads watchdog device's internal status bits
* nowayout - reads whether nowayout feature was set or not

Testing with iTCO_wdt:
# cd /sys/class/watchdog/watchdog1/
# ls
bootstatus dev device identity nowayout power state
subsystem timeleft timeout uevent
# cat identity
iTCO_wdt
# cat timeout
30
# cat state
inactive
# echo > /dev/watchdog1
# cat timeleft
26
# cat state
active
# cat bootstatus
0
# cat nowayout
0

watchdog: Use static struct class watchdog_class in stead of pointer

We need few sysfs attributes to know different status of a watchdog device.
To do that, we need to associate .dev_groups with watchdog_class. So
convert it from pointer to static.
Putting this static struct in watchdog_dev.c, so that static device
attributes defined in that file can be attached to it.

watchdog: core: add reboot notifier support

Many watchdog drivers register a reboot notifier in order to stop the
watchdog on system reboot. Thus we can factorize this code in the
watchdog core.

For that purpose, a new notifier block is added in watchdog_device for
internal use only, as well as a new watchdog_stop_on_reboot helper
function.

If this helper is called, watchdog core registers the related notifier
block and will stop the watchdog when SYS_HALT or SYS_DOWN is received.

Since this operation can be critical on some platforms, abort the device
registration if the reboot notifier registration fails.
