The added Reviewed-by: makes it v2.

Anyway, your patch is whitespace corrupted.

ERROR: code indent should use tabs where possible
#36: FILE: drivers/watchdog/booke_wdt.c:45:
+               "Watchdog cannot be stopped once started (default="$

That explains a lot. I guess it is corrupted so badly that patchwork
doesn't recognize it as patch. Sorry, won't be able to apply it.
Please send a non-corrupted version.
