30ec910e02 [WATCHDOG] hpwdt: Use dmi_walk() instead of own copy
We can simplify the code by deleting all of the duplicated DMI table
walking code and using the kernel's existing dmi_walk() interface to
find the DMI entry the driver is looking for.

ef82710a3f [WATCHDOG] Fix return value warning in hpwdt
The return value of smbios_scan_machine() is never used, and when it
succeeds it doesn't return anything, so just make it void.  This fixes:

    drivers/watchdog/hpwdt.c: In function 'smbios_scan_machine':
    drivers/watchdog/hpwdt.c:562: warning: control reaches end of non-void function

103018aca2 [WATCHDOG] Fix declaration of struct smbios_entry_point in hpwdt
On my HP DL380 G5 system running a 64-bit kernel, loading the hpwdt
driver causes a crash because the driver attempts to ioremap an
invalid physical address.  This is because the driver has an incorrect
definition of the SMBIOS table entry point structure: the table
address is only a 32-bit quantity, and making it a u64 means that the
high-order 32 bits end up containing garbage.

Correcting the structure definition fixes the driver so that it loads
without any problems on my system.

7f4da4745c [WATCHDOG] HP ProLiant WatchDog driver
Hp is providing a Hardware WatchDog Timer driver that will only work with the
specific HW Timer located in the HP ProLiant iLO 2 ASIC. The iLO 2 HW Timer
will generate a Non-maskable Interrupt (NMI) 9 seconds before physically
resetting the server, by removing power, so that the event can be logged to
the HP Integrated Management Log (IML), a Non-Volatile Random Access Memory
(NVRAM). The logging of the event is performed using the HP ProLiant ROM via
an Industry Standard access known as a BIOS Service Directory Entry.
