This series migrates the driver to the new kernel watchdog API and then to the driver model. This series migrates the driver to the driver model and then to the new kernel watchdog API. I tested it on a f81866. v3 -> v4: - Prepend fix for wrong timeout report (Guenther) - Remove WDOG_HW_RUNNING setting in start as the watchdog can be stopped (Guenther) - Dynamically allocate watchdog driver data (Guenther) v3 -> RESEND: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-watchdog/cover.dedd9f1159389b0a438076ef5e5a46aded186463.1612457906.git-series.a.fatoum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/#t Didn't generate any feedback over 2 months. Resending for exposure. v2 -> v3: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-watchdog/20201020062112.6762-1-a.fatoum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ - factored out identifier renaming again for easier review - reordered commits - removed refactoring that can go in later. Focusing now on kernel watchdog API and platform device/driver migration - removed platform_device_id and changed code to match by name v1 -> v2: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-watchdog/20200611191750.28096-1-a.fatoum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ - reworked to platform device/driver pair (Guenther) - squashed identifier renaming into the patches that touch the respective lines anyway - fixed checkpatch.pl nitpicks (Guenther) - fixed locally used variable declared without static (0-day) - fixed unneded line break due to old line limit (Guenther) - renamed struct fintek_wdog_data to struct fintek_wdt Ahmad Fatoum (5): watchdog: f71808e_wdt: fix inaccurate report in WDIOC_GETTIMEOUT watchdog: f71808e_wdt: rename variant-independent identifiers appropriately watchdog: f71808e_wdt: migrate to new kernel watchdog API watchdog: f71808e_wdt: refactor to platform device/driver pair watchdog: f71808e_wdt: dynamically allocate watchdog driver data drivers/watchdog/Kconfig | 1 +- drivers/watchdog/f71808e_wdt.c | 608 ++++++++++------------------------ 2 files changed, 191 insertions(+), 418 deletions(-) base-commit: 2734d6c1b1a089fb593ef6a23d4b70903526fe0c -- git-series 0.9.1
