watchdog: Convert iTCO_wdt driver to mfd model
Ever since the Linux 3.5 update, the iTCO_wdt driver has been completely
non-functional on every machine I encountered due to the above
conversion. A bug report for this problem has been open at
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44991 for over a month.
Yet, neither the author of the commit, nor the people who signed off on
it have reacted to the bug report.
At this point, I believe that none of you are actually aware of the
problem and I write you to change that unfortunate situation.
Regards
Thomas Bächler
