Maybe I'm confused.

For pre-timeout, I think the SBSA watchdog driver should support only 
half-timeout.  That is, the user cannot configure the length of the 
pre-timeout with this driver.  He can only enable it, and it is 
automatically set to 1/2 timeout.

So when pre-timeout occurs, the interrupt handler calls panic() or 
whatever it's supposed to do.

So "pre-timeout  == timeout / 2 (always)" is exactly what we want.
