Mark Balantzyan July 30, 2019, 3:50 a.m. UTC
This patch rewrites the pc87413_wdt driver to use the watchdog subsystem. In
doing so, it also addresses a potential race condition owing from the
swc_base_addr variable being used before being set.

"Revision of ..." is an odd subject line. Also, please start the subject line with
"watchdog: pc87413: ".

Is this used anywhere ?

notifier.h and reboot.h should not be needed if the code is changed
to use watchdog_stop_on_reboot().

No longer needed.

I am quite sure you still see a warning here, or rather where the function is referenced.

As mentioned, please drop the notifier function and call watchdog_stop_on_reboot()
prior to registering the watchdog.

I don't immediately see how timeouts are now handled, and I am not sure
if they are handled correctly, especially with the removed
		/* the API states this is given in secs */
		new_timeout /= 60;
above, and the datasheet says that timeouts are in multiples of minutes.
This means that a set_)timeout function will be needed to calculate and
set the correct timeout values.

Not needed: The watchdog is not (or should not be) running.

I am getting a bit lost here, but it seems to me this is called if
watchdog registration failed. The cleanup is wrong. You still need
to call release_region(), you don't need to unregister the watchdog,
and you still need to return ret.

Again, why drop this module parameter ?
