[PATCH] watchdog: Inform about watchdog timeout.

From: Mathieu Othacehe
Date: Sun Jul 14 2024 - 11:46:47 EST


When the kernel stops feeding the watchdog, inform the user that it is
about to timeout in X seconds.

The message looks like: watchdog: watchdog0: timeout in 15 seconds

This is helpful to warn the user that, most likely,
CONFIG_WATCHDOG_OPEN_TIMEOUT seconds have elapsed and the userspace hasn't
start feeding the watchdog.
