PAPR v2.12 defines a new hypercall, H_WATCHDOG. The hypercall permits guest control of one or more virtual watchdog timers. The timers have millisecond granularity. The guest is terminated when a timer expires. This patch adds a watchdog driver for these timers, "pseries-wdt". pseries_wdt_probe() currently assumes the existence of only one platform device and always assigns it watchdogNumber 1. If we ever expose more than one timer to userspace we will need to devise a way to assign a distinct watchdogNumber to each platform device at device registration time.
