Indeed, thanks for the catch.

We probably can't change the attribute from ziirave_wdt, which is a bit
unfortunate as "firmware_version" would nicely match the name from
"struct watchdog_info".

How about "fw_version"?

That would match the naming of sysfs attributes from a bunch of other
subsystems.

And obviously an addition to Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-watchdog is
also missing from the patch.
I'll add it in v2.
