    [WATCHDOG] timers cleanup
    
    - Use timer macros to set function and data members and to modify
      expiration time.
    - Use DEFINE_TIMER for single (platform dependent) watchdog timers and
      do not init them at run-time in these cases.
    - del_timer_sync is common in most cases -- we want to wait for timer
      function if it's still running.

    [WATCHDOG] pcwd_usb.c - get heartbeat from dip switches
    
    The PCWD cards normally use the heartbeat that is set via
    the dip-switches of the card. There are only 3 switches,
    thus 8 combinations that each have a certain heartbeat.
    The card can however be programmed with a heartbeat from
    1 till 65535 seconds. This is what our driver does: it
    programs the heartbeat on the card.
    
    There are however a lot of people that don't know that
    we set the heartbeat of the watchdog card to the value
    provided by the heartbeat module parameter. Instead they
    think that the heartbeat value is the same as set by the
    dip-switches.
    
    This patch changes the driver so that at startup you can
    take the heartbeat from the dip-switches. You do this
    by setting the heartbeat module parameter to 0. This
    patch also makes this the default behaviour.
