[WATCHDOG] correct sysfs name for watchdog devices
While looking for possible candidates for our udev.rules package, I found a few odd ->name properties. /dev/watchdog has minor 130 according to devices.txt. Since all watchdog drivers use the misc_register() call, they will end up in /sys/class/misc/$foo. udev may create the /dev/watchdog node if the driver is loaded. I dont have such a device, so I cant test it. The drivers below provide names with spaces and even with / in it. Not a big deal, but apps may expect /dev/watchdog.
