Martin Kaiser e06f7b686d watchdog: imx2_wdt: restore previous timeout after suspend+resume
commit 0be267255cef64e1c58475baa7b25568355a3816 upstream.

When the watchdog device is suspended, its timeout is set to the maximum
value. During resume, the previously set timeout should be restored.
This does not work at the moment.

The suspend function calls

imx2_wdt_set_timeout(wdog, IMX2_WDT_MAX_TIME);

and resume reverts this by calling

imx2_wdt_set_timeout(wdog, wdog->timeout);

However, imx2_wdt_set_timeout() updates wdog->timeout. Therefore,
wdog->timeout is set to IMX2_WDT_MAX_TIME when we enter the resume
function.

Fix this by adding a new function __imx2_wdt_set_timeout() which
only updates the hardware settings. imx2_wdt_set_timeout() now calls
__imx2_wdt_set_timeout() and then saves the new timeout to
wdog->timeout.

During suspend, we call __imx2_wdt_set_timeout() directly so that
wdog->timeout won't be updated and we can restore the previous value
during resume. This approach makes wdog->timeout different from the
actual setting in the hardware which is usually not a good thing.
However, the two differ only while we're suspended and no kernel code is
running, so it should be ok in this case.

============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
