Some watchdog drivers initialize global spinlocks in module's init function
which is tolerable, but some do it in PCI probe function. So, switch to
static initialization to fix theoretical bugs and, more importantly, stop
giving people bad examples.

Add the WDIOC_SETOPTIONS ioctl call. Because of this we
move the spinlocking to the different watchdog operations.

* Fix identation
* Add watchdog "mandatory" WDIOC_GETBOOTSTATUS ioctl
* On unexpected close -> since this is considered as
a write to the watchdog device, make sure we ping a
last time.

move the code to stop the watchdog and the code to
set the heartbeat of the watchdog to seperate functions.

Return ENOTTY instead of ENOIOCTLCMD in user-visible ioctl() results
The watchdog drivers used to return ENOIOCTLCMD for bad ioctl() commands.
ENOIOCTLCMD should not be visible by the user, so use ENOTTY instead.

Mark the static struct file_operations in drivers/char as const. Making
them const prevents accidental bugs, and moves them to the .rodata section
so that they no longer do any false sharing; in addition with the proper
debug option they are then protected against corruption..

Attached patch removes #ifdef CONFIG_WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT mess duplicated in
almost every watchdog driver and replaces it with common define in

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
