The patch has implications touching 2 different ARM subarchitectures
outside the driver itself, so I felt it more appropriate for the rename
to happen all at once and be carried through the ARM tree. The driver
sees no functional changes.

I don't think it'll apply cleanly to the watchdog tree without greater
conflicts with the other ARM related changes.
