Sure, no problem. just need a very little fix in non-pretimout version
Just delete several lines in "sbsa_gwdt_interrupt", become like this:
+static irqreturn_t sbsa_gwdt_interrupt(int irq, void *dev_id)
+{
+ panic("SBSA Watchdog pre-timeout");
+
+ return IRQ_HANDLED;
+}
this matches your thought.
Any other code I need to improve ? If It is OK for you, I can sent a
new patchset soon.
Please let me know anything else I need to improve.
Great thanks for your time
