Minor suggestion regarding the SOB line which applies to
rest of the series as well. Typically your SOB line
should be the last one like below.

No need to repost the series just for that. The last
patch as I commented earlier, needs to be separate
patch which will go via linux-keystone tree.

Once the watchdog maintainer is happy with rest of the
series and applies it, I will pick last patch.

Regards,
Santosh
