Use the bark interrupt as the pretimeout notifier if available.

When the watchdog timer expires in dual mode, an interrupt will be
triggered first, then the timing restarts. The reset signal will be
initiated when the timer expires again.

The pretimeout notification shall occur at timeout-sec/2.

V2:
- panic() by default if WATCHDOG_PRETIMEOUT_GOV is not enabled.

V3:
- Modify the pretimeout behavior, manually reset after the pretimeout
- is processed and wait until timeout.

V4:
- Remove pretimeout related processing. 
- Add dual mode control separately.

V5:
- Fix some formatting and printing problems.

V6:
- Realize pretimeout processing through dualmode.

Please run checkpatch --strict and fix what it reports.
Also, there should be a set_pretimeout function to set the
pretimeout. It is ok to update it here, but it should be set
in its own function to make sure that the actual value
is reported back to userspace.

Thanks,

The reason why the set_pretimeout interface is not provided is 
because the pretimeout is fixed after the timeout is set,  we need
to modify timeout after setting pretimeout, which is puzzling.
What you need to do is to set pretimeout = timeout / 2 if a pretimeout
is set to a value != 0. Just like we adjust timeout to valid values
when set, we adjust pretimeout as well. I don't see a problem with that.

Guenter
Thanks, Guenter. But this will complicate the situation:
First, set_pretimeout will become an interface for dynamically enable and
disable the pre-timeout func, instead of adjusting the pretimeout time. 

Secondly, when the irq is not registered, the user cannot be allowed to set
the pretimeout to non-zero. When irq is registered, it doesn't make any sense
to turn off pre-timeout func. 

Because of the particularity of dual mode, I still insist on enabling the
pretimeout or not through devicetree. And looking forward to your suggestions.

Thanks,
Qing
