Subject: [GIT PULL REQUEST] watchdog - v3.4-rc4 Fixes

Hi Linus,

Please pull from 'master' branch of
	git://www.linux-watchdog.org/linux-watchdog.git

It will fix the size when reading or writing to WD Timer port 0x72 in the
hpwdt driver.

commit d08c9a33b4aa6665b0ee3c4d1b57715fa0eae2a2

    hpwdt: Only BYTE reads/writes to WD Timer port 0x72
    
    This patch is to correct the use of the iLO port 0x72 usage.
    The port 0x72 is a byte size write/read and hpwdt is currently
    writing a WORD.
