In the restart handler, we hit the following OOPS because rwdt_start() schedules because of usleep_range(): [ 16.071855] BUG: scheduling while atomic: init/1184/0x00000002 ...

The downside is busy looping when the watchdog is started or stopped (64us or 96us in my case). However, this happens rarely enough, so it seems acceptable. Fixes: b836005b4f95 ("watchdog: renesas_wdt: Add a few cycles delay") Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang <wsa+renesas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- We could also add a new flag in the watchdog core "IS_RESTARTING" or similar and check that in the driver. Depending on the flag, we use udelay() or usleep_range(). Not sure, if this is feasible or over-engineered, though.
