Replace the existing /* fall through */ comments and its variants with
the new pseudo-keyword macro fallthrough[1]. Also, remove unnecessary
fall-through markings when it is the case.[1] https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/deprecated.html?highlight=fallthrough#implicit-switch-case-fall-through

All watchdog drivers implement the same set of ioctl commands, and
fortunately all of them are compatible between 32-bit and 64-bit
architectures.Modern drivers always go through drivers/watchdog/wdt.c as an abstraction
layer, but older ones implement their own file_operations on a character
device for this.Move the handling from fs/compat_ioctl.c into the individual drivers.
Note that most of the legacy drivers will never be used on 64-bit
hardware, because they are for an old 32-bit SoC implementation, but
doing them all at once is safer than trying to guess which ones do
or do not need the compat_ioctl handling.Reviewed-by: Guenter Roeck

This gets rid of the unnecessary license boilerplate, and avoids
having to deal with individual patches one by one.No functional changes.

Using scripts/coccinelle/api/stream_open.cocci added in 10dce8af3422
("fs: stream_open - opener for stream-like files so that read and write
can run simultaneously without deadlock"), search and convert to
stream_open all in-kernel nonseekable_open users for which read and
write actually do not depend on ppos and where there is no other methods
in file_operations which assume @offset access.I've verified each generated change manually - that it is correct to convert -
and each other nonseekable_open instance left - that it is either not correct
to convert there, or that it is not converted due to current stream_open.cocci
limitations. The script also does not convert files that should be valid to
convert, but that currently have .llseek = noop_llseek or generic_file_llseek
for unknown reason despite file being opened with nonseekable_open (e.g.
drivers/input/mousedev.c)Among cases converted 14 were potentially vulnerable to read vs write deadlock

I just can't find any value in MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(WATCHDOG_MINOR)
and MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(TEMP_MINOR) statements.Either the device is enumerated and the driver already has a module
alias (e.g. PCI, USB etc.) that will get the right driver loaded
automatically.Or the device is not enumerated and loading its driver will lead to
more or less intrusive hardware poking. Such hardware poking should be
limited to a bare minimum, so the user should really decide which
drivers should be tried and in what order. Trying them all in
arbitrary order can't do any good.On top of that, loading that many drivers at once bloats the kernel
log. Also many drivers will stay loaded afterward, bloating the output
of "lsmod" and wasting memory. Some modules (cs5535_mfgpt which gets
loaded as a dependency) can't even be unloaded!If defining char-major-10-130 is needed then it should happen in

Some motherboards like the Advantech ARK3400 documentation
use a non-inverted GPIO pin. We fix this by assuming that
the BIOS will set the Polarity bit for the GPIO correctly
at startup and we keep the Bit-setting intact when we start
and stop the watchdog.Reported-by: Jean-François Deverge

The SCH311x chip contains 2 watchdogs. One is the watchdog programmable
by the runtime register at address 0x65-0x68, the other is the watchdog
inside the power on reset generator. This second watchdog has a fixed
timeout value of ~1.6 seconds and is configurable only by the RESGEN
register.The BIOS normally takes care of the RESGEN watchdog and disables it (at
least) before the OS is booted.Unfortunately the sch311x_wdt driver clears bit 0 of the RESGEN register
which has the effect that at the latest 1.6 seconds later, a POR is
triggered.The attached patch fixes this problem by completely removing any
reference to the RESGEN watchdog from the sch311x_wdt driver.Signed-off-by: Dave Mueller

While checking what watchdog drivers usually do in suspend/resume to
spot common behaviour for the watchdog framework, I found these drivers
which do nothing but add some cruft. Remove it, it is superfluous. New
approaches should probably be done with pm_ops anyway.Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang
