5a623ce0a5 watchdog: iTCO_wdt: Remove unused hooks
As the only user of iTCO_vendor_pre_keepalive and
iTCO_vendor_pre_set_heartbeat has just been removed, we can delete
these 2 hooks.

2c05318ad5 watchdog: iTCO_wdt: Drop option vendorsupport=2
iTCO_vendor_support's option vendorsupport=2 is a gross hack. It
claims to extend the existing iTCO_wdt driver, but in fact programs
a watchdog on a completely different device (Super-I/O) without
requesting its I/O ports and without checking the device ID. This is
an utterly dangerous thing to do.

It also turns out to be unnecessary, because as far as I can tell, the
code in question is basically duplicating what the clean w83627hf_wdt
driver is doing.

My guess is that on these SuperMicro boards which sparkled the
implementation of vendorsupport=2, the watchdog functionality of the
Intel south bridge is not used, and the watchdog feature of some
W83627HF-like Super-I/O chip is used instead. So we should point the
users to the w83627hf_wdt driver.

887c8ec721 watchdog: Convert iTCO_wdt driver to mfd model
This patch converts the iTCO_wdt driver to use the multi-function device
driver model. It uses resources discovered by the lpc_ich driver, so that
it no longer does its own PCI scanning.

7e6811daa6 iTCO_wdt: fix TCO V1 timeout values and limits
For TCO V1 devices the programmed timeout was twice too long
because the fact that the TCO V1 timer needs to count down
twice before triggering the watchdog, wasn't accounted for.
Also the timeout values in the module description and error
message were clarified. And the _STS registers are 16 bit
instead of 8 bit.

55e8ddecec [WATCHDOG] iTCO_wdt: Fix ICH7+ reboot issue.
Bugzilla: 9868 & 10195.
There seems to be a bug into the SMM code that handles TCO Timeout SMI.
Andriy Gapon found that the code on his DG33TL system does the following:
> The handler is quite simple - it tests value in TCO1_CNT against 0x800, i.e.
> checks TCO_TMR_HLT. If the bit is set the handler goes into an infinite loop,
> apparently to allow the second timeout and reboot. Otherwise it simply clears
> TIMEOUT bit in TCO1_STS and that's it.
> So the logic seems to be reversed, because it is hard to see how TIMEOUT can
> get set to 1 and SMI generated when TCO_TMR_HLT is set (other than a
> transitional effect).

The only trick we have is to bypass the SMM code by turning of the generation
of the SMI#. The trick can only be enabled by setting the vendorsupport module
parameter to 911. This trick doesn't work well on laptop's.

Note: this is a dirty hack. Please handle with care. The only real fix is that
the bug in the SMM bios code get's fixed.

7cd5b08be3 [WATCHDOG] iTCO_wdt : problem with rebooting on new ICH9 based motherboards
Bugzilla #9868: On Intel motherboards with the ICH9 based I/O controllers
(Like DP35DP and DG33FB) the iTCO timer counts but it doesn't reboot the
system after the counter expires.

This patch fixes this by moving the enabling & disabling of the TCO_EN bit
in the SMI_EN register into the start and stop code.

* Convert files to UTF-8.

  * Also correct some people's names
    (one example is Eißfeldt, which was found in a source file.
    Given that the author used an ß at all in a source file
    indicates that the real name has in fact a 'ß' and not an 'ss',
    which is commonly used as a substitute for 'ß' when limited to
    7bit.)

  * Correct town names (Goettingen -> Göttingen)
