[PATCH] watchdog, SP5100: Check if firmware has set correct valuein tcobase.

From: Yinghai Lu
Date: Wed Mar 16 2011 - 17:19:03 EST




Stefano found SP5100 TCO watchdog driver using wrong address.

[ 9.148536] SP5100 TCO timer: SP5100 TCO WatchDog Timer Driver v0.01
[ 9.148628] DEBUG __ioremap_caller WARNING address=b8fe00 size=8 valid=1 reserved=1

and e820 said that range is RAM.

We should check if we can use that reading out. BIOS could just program wrong address there.

-v2: Mike pointed out one path need one release.
