From: Fu Wei <fu.wei@xxxxxxxxxx>

Also update Documentation/watchdog/watchdog-kernel-api.txt to
introduce:
(1)the new elements in the watchdog_device and watchdog_ops struct;
(2)the new API "watchdog_init_timeouts"

Reasons:
(1)kernel already has two watchdog drivers are using "pretimeout":
	drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_watchdog.c
	drivers/watchdog/kempld_wdt.c(but the definition is different)
(2)some other drivers are going to use this: ARM SBSA Generic Watchdog

If I understand the code correctly, this permits for pretimeout being specified
as module parameter and timeout as devicetree property. I don't think this
is a good idea. Use either one or the other, but not both. So this can be
simplified to

	if (watchdog_pretimeout_invalid(wdd, pretimeout_parm)
		ret = _EINVAL;

if you use pretimeout directly below.

+	/*
+	 * Try to get the timeout module parameter,
+	 * if it's valid and pretimeout is valid(ret == 0),
+	 * assignment and return zero. Otherwise, try dtb.
+	 */
+	if (timeout_parm) {

You can use
	if (timeout_parm && !ret) {

+		if (!watchdog_timeout_invalid(wdd, timeout_parm) && !ret) {

instead of checking ret here.

+			wdd->timeout = timeout_parm;
+			wdd->pretimeout = timeouts[1];

This is really pretimeout_parm here, which should be used.
Then you don't need timeouts[1].

+			return 0;
+		}
  		ret = -EINVAL;

Unfortunately this does not set wdd->pretimeout if pretimeout_parm
is set but timeout_parm isn't. So I think you need

	} else if (pretimeout_parm && !ret) {
		wdd->pretimeout = pretimeout;
		return 0;
	}

However, that actually won't work as we may try to set both timeout
and pretimeout, but the current checks validate against the previous
values. I'll need to think about that.

Also, this is getting a bit complicated. Wonder if the code can be simplified.
Something else to think about.
