  • The OMAP watchdog timer driver directly calls a function exported by
    code in arch/arm/mach-omap2. This is not good; it tightly couples
    this driver to the mach-omap2 integration code. Instead, add a
    temporary platform_data function pointer to abstract this function
    call. A subsequent patch will convert the watchdog driver to use this
    function pointer.

    This patch also moves the device creation code out of
    arch/arm/mach-omap2/devices.c and into arch/arm/mach-omap2/wd_timer.c.
    This is another step towards the removal of
    arch/arm/mach-omap2/devices.c.
