[PATCH v2 7/7] rt2800: do not enable watchdog by default

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Make watchdog disabled by default and add module parameter to enable it.

User will have to create file in /etc/modprobe.d/ with

options rt2800lib watchdog=1

to enable the watchdog or load "rt2800lib watchdog=1" module manually
before loading rt2800{soc,pci,usb} module.
