[PATCH 0/2] power: reset: pscrr: record reset cause on panic and watchdog pretimeout

[Faruque Ansari]

This series extends the Power State Change Reason Register (PSCRR)[1]
framework to capture two additional reset causes.

  1. Kernel panic — a panic notifier writes PSCR_KERNEL_PANIC to NVMEM
     before the system resets, so the next boot can distinguish a panic
     from other reset causes.

  2. Watchdog pretimeout — set_psc_reason(PSCR_WATCHDOG_PRETIMEOUT) is
     called from watchdog_notify_pretimeout(), when the watchdog fire its
     pre-reset notification before resetting the system, so the reason gets
     saved and we know its was a watchdog timeout that caused the reset.
