+ Hardware driver for the intel TCO timer based watchdog devices.
+ These drivers are included in the Intel 82801 I/O Controller
+ Hub family 'from ICH0 up to ICH7) and in the Intel 6300ESB
+ controller hub.
+
+ The TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) timer is a watchdog timer
+ that will reboot the machine after its second expiration. The
+ expiration time can be configured with the "heartbeat" parameter.
+
+ On some motherboards the driver may fail to reset the chipset's
+ NO_REBOOT flag which prevents the watchdog from rebooting the
+ machine. If this is the case you will get a kernel message like
+ "failed to reset NO_REBOOT flag, reboot disabled by hardware".

+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
+ module will be called iTCO_wdt.
