* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wim/linux-2.6-watchdog: [WATCHDOG] i6300esb.c: start locking [WATCHDOG] i6300esb.c: convert to platform device driver [WATCHDOG] wdt.c: remove #ifdef CONFIG_WDT_501 [WATCHDOG] Fix io.h & uaccess.h includes. [WATCHDOG] More coding-style and trivial clean-up [WATCHDOG] struct file_operations should be const [WATCHDOG] cpwd.c: Coding style - Clean-up [WATCHDOG] hpwdt.c: Add new HP BMC controller. [PATCH 13/13] drivers/watchdog: use USB API functions rather than constants [WATCHDOG] orion5x_wdt: fix compile issue by providing tclk as platform data [WATCHDOG] rc32434_wdt: make sure watchdog is not running at startup [WATCHDOG] rc32434_wdt: add spin_locking [WATCHDOG] rc32434_wdt: add shutdown method [WATCHDOG] rc32434_wdt: add timeout module parameter [WATCHDOG] rc32434_wdt: clean-up driver [WATCHDOG] davinci: convert to ioremap() + io[read|write] [WATCHDOG] w83697ug: add error checking [WATCHDOG] cpwd.c & riowd.c - unlocked_ioctl
