This series migrates the driver to the new kernel watchdog API and then to the driver model. I tested it on a f81866. v4 -> v5: - Collect Guenter's Reviewed-by's - remove superfluous max_timeout global in existing code (Guenter) - constify static array in existing code (Guenter) - fix wrong handling of start_withtimeout (Guenter) - add local variable dev = &pdev->dev v3 -> v4: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-watchdog/cover.c711be1db54f4e07c0153266dd1a831e92e3d49d.1626948810.git-series.a.fatoum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ - Prepend fix for wrong timeout report (Guenter) - Remove WDOG_HW_RUNNING setting in start as the watchdog can be stopped (Guenter) - Dynamically allocate watchdog driver data (Guenter) 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 (Guenter) - squashed identifier renaming into the patches that touch the respective lines anyway - fixed checkpatch.pl nitpicks (Guenter) - fixed locally used variable declared without static (0-day) - fixed unneded line break due to old line limit (Guenter) - renamed struct fintek_wdog_data to struct fintek_wdt Ahmad Fatoum (7): watchdog: f71808e_wdt: fix inaccurate report in WDIOC_GETTIMEOUT watchdog: f71808e_wdt: remove superfluous global watchdog: f71808e_wdt: constify static array 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 | 615 +++++++++++----------------------- 2 files changed, 201 insertions(+), 415 deletions(-) base-commit: 36a21d51725af2ce0700c6ebcb6b9594aac658a6 -- git-series 0.9.1
