* Software only watchdog driver. Unlike its big brother the WDT501P
* driver this won't always recover a failed machine.
*
* 03/96: Angelo Haritsis <ah@doc.ic.ac.uk> :
* Modularised.
* Added soft_margin; use upon insmod to change the timer delay.
* NB: uses same minor as wdt (WATCHDOG_MINOR); we could use separate
* minors.
*
* 19980911 Alan Cox
* Made SMP safe for 2.3.x
*
* 20011127 Joel Becker (jlbec@evilplan.org>
* Added soft_noboot; Allows testing the softdog trigger without
* requiring a recompile.
* Added WDIOC_GETTIMEOUT and WDIOC_SETTIMOUT.
*
* 20020530 Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
* Added Matt Domsch's nowayout module option.
