      hwmon: (sch56xx) Add support for the integrated watchdog (v2) · 312869ec

      Add support for the watchdog integrated into the SMSC SCH5627 and
      SCH5636 superio-s. Since the watchdog is part of the hwmon logical device
      and thus shares ioports with it, the watchdog driver is integrated into the
      existing hwmon drivers for these.
      
      Note that this version of the watchdog support for sch56xx superio-s
      implements the watchdog chardev interface itself, rather then relying on
      the recently added watchdog core / watchdog_dev. This is done because
      currently some needed functionality is missing from watchdog_dev, as soon
      as this functionality is added (which is being discussed on the
      linux-watchdog mailinglist), I'll convert this driver over to using
      watchdog_dev.
