Bhumika Goyal cb5f9d406d watchdog: pika_wdt: add __ro_after_init to ident
The object ident of type watchdog_info structure is not
modified after getting initialized by pikawdt_init. Apart from getting
referenced in init it is also passed as an argument to the function
copy_to_user but this argument is of type const void *. Therefore add
__ro_after_init to its declaration.

Jean Delvare 487722cf2d watchdog: Get rid of MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV statements
I just can't find any value in MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(WATCHDOG_MINOR)
and MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(TEMP_MINOR) statements.

Either the device is enumerated and the driver already has a module
alias (e.g. PCI, USB etc.) that will get the right driver loaded
automatically.

Or the device is not enumerated and loading its driver will lead to
more or less intrusive hardware poking. Such hardware poking should be
limited to a bare minimum, so the user should really decide which
drivers should be tried and in what order. Trying them all in
arbitrary order can't do any good.

On top of that, loading that many drivers at once bloats the kernel
log. Also many drivers will stay loaded afterward, bloating the output
of "lsmod" and wasting memory. Some modules (cs5535_mfgpt which gets
loaded as a dependency) can't even be unloaded!

If defining char-major-10-130 is needed then it should happen in
user-space.

Rob Herring c11eede69b powerpc: add missing explicit OF includes for ppc
Commit b5b4bb3f6a (of: only include prom.h on sparc) removed implicit
includes of of_*.h headers by powerpc's prom.h. Some components were
missed in initial clean-up patch, so add the necessary includes to fix
powerpc builds.

nowayout is actually a boolean value.
So make it bool for all watchdog device drivers.
