The purpose of this patchset is to add a platform data structure for the max63xx_wdt driver in order to setup the device in a platform code. This is especially handy if the driver is built-in and/or the device registers aren't memory mapped. First, fix the Kconfig entry to allow building the support for architectures other than ARM. Then clean up the driver to help distinguish different device connections and to ease the introduction of new features: support for GPIO wired MAX63xx devices and heartbeat as a platform setting. Tested with a GPIO wired MAX6373 on an Atom platform, with a built-in driver.
