watchdog: menz069_wdt: fix watchdog initialisation
stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.183 commit d5fcccfc50100caf62d0ef29032ff892d986d5c0 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I8IRR2 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=d5fcccfc50100caf62d0ef29032ff892d986d5c0 -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 87b22656 ] Doing a 'cat /dev/watchdog0' with menz069_wdt as watchdog0 will result in a NULL pointer dereference. This happens because we're passing the wrong pointer to watchdog_register_device(). Fix this by getting rid of the static watchdog_device structure and use the one embedded into the driver's per-instance private data. Signed-off-by:Johannes Thumshirn <jth@kernel.org> Reviewed-by:
