b237bcac55 wdt: Support wdt on ROHM BD9576MUF and BD9573MUF
Add Watchdog support for ROHM BD9576MUF and BD9573MUF PMICs which are
mainly used to power the R-Car series processors. The watchdog is
pinged using a GPIO and enabled using another GPIO. Additionally
watchdog time-out can be configured to HW prior starting the watchdog.
Watchdog timeout can be configured to detect only delayed ping or in
a window mode where also too fast pings are detected.

1b5b5b4eb5 watchdog: intel_scu_watchdog: Remove driver for deprecated platform
Intel Moorestown and Medfield are quite old Intel Atom based
32-bit platforms, which were in limited use in some Android phones,
tablets and consumer electronics more than eight years ago.

There are no bugs or problems ever reported outside from Intel
for breaking any of that platforms for years. It seems no real
users exists who run more or less fresh kernel on it. The commit
05f4434bc1 ("ASoC: Intel: remove mfld_machine") also in align
with this theory.

Due to above and to reduce a burden of supporting outdated drivers
we remove the support of outdated platforms completely.

c60923dd5f watchdog: mlx-wdt: introduce a watchdog driver for Mellanox systems.
Introduce watchdog driver for a various range of Mellanox Ethernet and
Infiniband switch systems.

Watchdog driver for Mellanox watchdog devices, implemented in
programmable logic device.

Main and auxiliary watchdog devices can exist on the same system.
There are several actions that can be defined in the watchdog:
system reset, start fans on full speed and increase a counter.
The last 2 actions are performed without a system reset.
Actions without reset are provided for auxiliary watchdog devices,
which is optional.
Access to HW registers is performed through generic
regmap interface.

There are 2 types of HW watchdog implementations.
Type 1: actual HW timeout can be defined as power of 2 msec.
e.g. timeout 20 sec will be rounded up to 32768 msec.;
maximum timeout period is 32 sec (32768 msec.);
get time-left isn't supported
Type 2: actual HW timeout is defined in sec. and it's the same as
user-defined timeout;
maximum timeout is 255 sec;
get time-left is supported;

Watchdog driver is probed from the common mlx_platform driver.

969c0acc03 watchdog: Add pm8916 watchdog driver
The PM816 module is a versatile PMIC with many diverse functions
integrated, including, a watchdog.
This watchdog is subcomponent of the PON (Power On) peripheral,
in the same way as pwrkey/resin buttons.
It works with two timers (2-stages), the first one generates an
IRQ to the main SoC (APQ8016/MSM8916), the second one performs
the reset.

This driver expects the following device hierarchy:
[pm8916]->[pm8916-pon]->[pm8916-wdt]

It uses the pm8916 regmap to access PM8916 registers.

This adds support for the CPU watchdog found on Marvell Armada 37xx
SoCs.

There are 4 counters which can be set as CPU watchdog counters.
This driver uses the second counter (ID 1, counting from 0) as watchdog
counter, and first counter (ID 0) to implement pinging on the second
counter without the need to disable it.

Since counters IDs 2 and 3 are enabled already before even U-Boot
starts, this driver does not use them at all, for example by adding a
device tree property for counter selection.

975b7f0fe6 watchdog: Add Nuvoton NPCM watchdog driver
The Nuvoton NPCM750 has a watchdog implemented as a single register
inside the timer peripheral.

This driver exposes that watchdog as a standard watchdog device with
coarse timeout intervals, limited by the combination of prescaler and
counter that is provided by the hardware. The calculation is taken from
the Nuvoton vendor tree.

The watchdog is left running if a bootloader had it going. The rate is
the one specified in the device tree, or the default value (obtained
from the datasheet).

There is a pre-timeout IRQ that is wired up. This timeout always occurs
1024 clocks before the timeout.

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

da0d12ff2b watchdog: pretimeout: add panic pretimeout governor
The change adds panic watchdog pretimeout governor, on watchdog
pretimeout event the kernel shall panic. In general watchdog
pretimeout event means that something essentially bad is going on the
system, for example a process scheduler stalls or watchdog feeder is
killed due to OOM, so printing out information attendant to panic and
before likely unavoidable reboot caused by a watchdog may help to
determine a root cause of the issue.

The change adds noop watchdog pretimeout governor, only an
informational message is printed to the kernel log buffer when a
watchdog triggers a pretimeout event.

While introducing the first pretimeout governor the selected design
assumes that the default pretimeout governor is selected by its name
and it is always built-in, thus the default pretimeout governor can
not be unregistered and the correspondent check can be removed from
the watchdog_unregister_governor() function.

058dfc7670 ACPI / watchdog: Add support for WDAT hardware watchdog
Starting from Intel Skylake the iTCO watchdog timer registers were moved to
reside in the same register space with SMBus host controller.  Not all
needed registers are available though and we need to unhide P2SB (Primary
to Sideband) device briefly to be able to read status of required NO_REBOOT
bit. The i2c-i801.c SMBus driver used to handle this and creation of the
iTCO watchdog platform device.

Windows, on the other hand, does not use the iTCO watchdog hardware
directly even if it is available. Instead it relies on ACPI Watchdog Action
Table (WDAT) table to describe the watchdog hardware to the OS. This table
contains necessary information about the the hardware and also set of
actions which are executed by a driver as needed.

This patch implements a new watchdog driver that takes advantage of the
ACPI WDAT table. We split the functionality into two parts: first part
enumerates the WDAT table and if found, populates resources and creates
platform device for the actual driver. The second part is the driver
itself.

The reason for the split is that this way we can make the driver itself to
be a module and loaded automatically if the WDAT table is found. Otherwise
the module is not loaded.
