A reboot notifier, which stops the WDT by calling the stop hook without
any check, would be registered when we set WDOG_STOP_ON_REBOOT flag.
Howerer we allow the WDT driver to omit the stop hook since commit
"d0684c8a93549" ("watchdog: Make stop function optional") and provide
a module parameter for user that controls the WDOG_STOP_ON_REBOOT flag
in commit 9232c80659 ("watchdog: Add stop_on_reboot parameter to
control reboot policy"). Together that commits make user potential to
insert a watchdog driver that don't provide a stop hook but with the
stop_on_reboot parameter set, then dereferencing of null pointer occurs
on system reboot.
Check the stop hook before registering the reboot notifier to fix the
issue.

Many watchdog drivers use watchdog_stop_on_reboot() helper in order
to stop the watchdog on system reboot. Unfortunately, this logic is
coded in driver's probe function and doesn't allows user to decide what
to do during shutdown/reboot.
On the other side, Xen and Qemu watchdog drivers (xen_wdt and i6300esb)
may be configured to either send NMI or turn off/reboot VM as
the watchdog action. As the kernel may stuck at any state, sending NMIs
can't reliably reboot the VM.
At Arista, we benefited from the following set-up: the emulated watchdogs
trigger VM reset and softdog is set to catch less severe conditions to
generate vmcore. Just before reboot watchdog's timeout is increased
to some good-enough value (3 mins). That keeps watchdog always running
and guarantees that VM doesn't stuck.
Provide new stop_on_reboot module parameter to let user control
watchdog's reboot policy.

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.

The watchdog character device is currently created in watchdog_dev.c,
and the watchdog device in watchdog_core.c. This results in
cross-dependencies, since device creation needs to know the watchdog

reside in watchdog_dev.c.
Create the watchdog device in watchdog_dev.c to simplify the code.

Many watchdog drivers register a reboot notifier in order to stop the
watchdog on system reboot. Thus we can factorize this code in the
watchdog core.
For that purpose, a new notifier block is added in watchdog_device for
internal use only, as well as a new watchdog_stop_on_reboot helper
function.
If this helper is called, watchdog core registers the related notifier
block and will stop the watchdog when SYS_HALT or SYS_DOWN is received.
Since this operation can be critical on some platforms, abort the device
registration if the reboot notifier registration fails.

It is valid for a watchdog driver to have 0 for a "min" and "max"
timeout if the driver doesn't need the core to enforce the concepts of
min and max. The s3c2410_wdt driver is one such driver. Specifically
it can be hard for that driver to come up with a static "max" on all
platforms without a lot more information since the input clock on
S3C2410 and S3C2440 can change with DVFS.
As written, watchdog_init_timeout() will not ever read "timeout-sec"
on these drivers since watchdog_timeout_invalid() will _never_ return
true. Change to not consider a timeout_parm of 0 as valid even if
min/max aren't specified by the driver. Also handle the case when
there is no min/max and no "timeout-sec" property.

This patch fixes some potential multithreading issues, despite only
allowing one process to open the /dev/watchdog device, we can still get
called multiple times at the same time, since a program could be using thread,
or could share the fd after a fork.
This causes 2 potential problems:
1) watchdog_start / open do an unlocked test_n_set / test_n_clear,
if these 2 race, the watchdog could be stopped while the active
bit indicates it is running or visa versa.
2) Most watchdog_dev drivers probably assume that only one
watchdog-op will get called at a time, this is not necessary

The WatchDog Timer Driver Core is a framework
that contains the common code for all watchdog-driver's.
It also introduces a watchdog device structure and the
operations that go with it.
This is the introduction of this framework. This part
supports the minimal watchdog userspace API (or with
other words: the functionality to use /dev/watchdog's
open, release and write functionality as defined in
the simplest watchdog API). Extra functionality will
follow in the next set of patches.
