Subject: [v3.8 Regression] watchdog: sp5100_tco: Add SB8x0 chipset support

Hi Takahisa,

A bug was opened against the Ubuntu kernel[0].  It was found that 
reverting the following commit resolved this bug:

commit 740fbddf5c3f9ad8b23c5d917ba1cc7e376a5104
Author: Takahisa Tanaka <mc74hc00@...il.com>
Date:   Sun Dec 2 14:33:18 2012 +0900

     watchdog: sp5100_tco: Add SB8x0 chipset support


The regression was introduced as of v3.8-rc1.

I see that you are the author of this patch, so I wanted to run this by 
you.  I was thinking of requesting a revert for v3.8, but I wanted to 
get your feedback first.


Thanks,

Joe
