In accordance to watchdog_ioctl() in drivers/watchdog/watchdog_dev.c WDIOF_KEEPALIVEPING may be needed here as to enable the support of WDIOC_KEEPALIVE ioctl.

Correct? So maybe add it then?

Yes. Not having the flag means that the ioctl is not supported,
and that keepalives have to be implemented using file i/o.

Wim, oversight or on purpose ?
good catch, oversight from moving from the implementation of the old _ioctl() in the driver and I didn't have a test for it in my testprogram so missed it. Added in and tested it.
