This patchset provides support for the Watchdog Timer (WDT) found in the Krait Processor Sub-system (KPSS) of the MSM8960, APQ8064, and IPQ8064 chips. This driver is implemented ontop of WATCHDOG_CORE, and therefore its primary interface is through userspace. The implemantion is currently very basic (i.e. it doesn't support PRETIMEOUT, even though it could be implemented through the WDT's BARK functionality). It should also be fairly easy to extend this driver in the future to support newer chipsets as well. Patch 3 also extends the driver to also register a restart_notifier, making it possible for the WDT to act as a restart mechanism if more favorable mechanisms don't work. This is important for some boards which don't support PS_HOLD, like the IPQ8064-based AP148 board.
