[PATCH] rtc: ds1307: provide an indication that the watchdog has fired

From: Chris Packham
Date: Fri Jul 24 2020 - 00:50:27 EST


There's not much feedback when the ds1388 watchdog fires. Generally it
yanks on the reset line and the board reboots. To provide some feedback
indicate that the watchdog has fired in the past. This should help
distinguish a watchdog triggered reset from a power interruption.
