Subject: watchdog: Separate and maintain variables based on variable lifetime
All variables required by the watchdog core to manage a watchdog are
currently stored in struct watchdog_device. The lifetime of those
variables is determined by the watchdog driver. However, the lifetime
of variables used by the watchdog core differs from the lifetime of
struct watchdog_device. To remedy this situation, watchdog drivers
can implement ref and unref callbacks, to be used by the watchdog
core to lock struct watchdog_device in memory.
While this solves the immediate problem, it depends on watchdog drivers
to actually implement the ref/unref callbacks. This is error prone,
often not implemented in the first place, or not implemented correctly.
To solve the problem without requiring driver support, split the variables
in struct watchdog_device into two data structures - one for variables
associated with the watchdog driver, one for variables associated with
the watchdog core. With this approach, the watchdog core can keep track
of its variable lifetime and no longer depends on ref/unref callbacks
in the driver. As a side effect, some of the variables originally in
struct watchdog_driver are now private to the watchdog core and no longer
visible in watchdog drivers.
As a side effect of the changes made, an ioctl will now always fail
with -ENODEV after a watchdog device was unregistered with the character
device still open. Previously, it would only fail with -ENODEV in some
situations. Also, ioctl operations are now atomic from driver perspective.
With this change, it is now guaranteed that the driver will not unregister
a watchdog between a timeout change and the subsequent ping.
The 'ref' and 'unref' callbacks in struct watchdog_driver are no longer
used and marked as deprecated.

-If the watchdog_device struct is dynamically allocated, just locking the module
-is not enough and a driver also needs to define the ref and unref operations to
-ensure the structure holding the watchdog_device does not go away.
-
-The simplest (and usually sufficient) implementation of this is to:
-1) Add a kref struct to the same structure which is holding the watchdog_device
-2) Define a release callback for the kref which frees the struct holding both
-3) Call kref_init on this kref *before* calling watchdog_register_device()
-4) Define a ref operation calling kref_get on this kref

The status bits should (preferably) be set with the set_bit and clear_bit alike
bit-operations. The status bits that are defined are:
* WDOG_ACTIVE: this status bit indicates whether or not a watchdog timer device
is active or not. When the watchdog is active after booting, then you should
set this status bit (Note: when you register the watchdog timer device with
this bit set, then opening /dev/watchdog will skip the start operation)
-* WDOG_DEV_OPEN: this status bit shows whether or not the watchdog device
- was opened via /dev/watchdog.
- (This bit should only be used by the WatchDog Timer Driver Core).
-* WDOG_ALLOW_RELEASE: this bit stores whether or not the magic close character
- has been sent (so that we can support the magic close feature).
- (This bit should only be used by the WatchDog Timer Driver Core).
* WDOG_NO_WAY_OUT: this bit stores the nowayout setting for the watchdog.
If this bit is set then the watchdog timer will not be able to stop.
-* WDOG_UNREGISTERED: this bit gets set by the WatchDog Timer Driver Core
- after calling watchdog_unregister_device, and then checked before calling
- any watchdog_ops, so that you can be sure that no operations (other then
- unref) will get called after unregister, even if userspace still holds a
- reference to /dev/watchdog

timer device) you can either:
