commit 5d78533a0c53af9659227c803df944ba27cd56e0 upstream. The obvious advantages are: - The linker can drop the watchdog functions if CONFIG_WATCHDOG is off. - All watchdog stuff grouped together with only a single function call left in generic code. - Watchdog register is only read when it is actually used. - Less #ifdefery Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.belloni@bootlin.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200924105256.18162-2-u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de Cc: Rasmus Villemoes <rasmus.villemoes@prevas.dk> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
