I have not looked how the watchdog subsystem handles multiple
watchdogs, but.. Can't we have the omap watchdog and twl watchdog
return -ENOTSUPP for WDIOC_GETBOOTSTATUS and have the watchdog
core fail over to the third wathcdog omap_prcm_wdt_ioctl() that
only implements WDIOC_GETBOOTSTATUS? Or something like that.
