On the MPC8xx, at 133Mhz, the maximum timeout of the watchdog timer is 1s, which means it must be pinged twice a second. This is not in line with the Linux watchdog concept which is based on a default watchdog timeout around 60s. This patch introduces an intermediate layer between the CPU and the userspace. The kernel pings the watchdog at the required frequency at the condition that userspace tools refresh it regularly. The new parameter 'heartbeat' allows to set up the userspace timeout. The driver also implements the WDIOC_SETTIMEOUT ioctl.
