watchdog: OMAP: use standard GETBOOTSTATUS interface; use platform_data fn ptr
Previously the OMAP watchdog driver used a non-standard way to report the chip reset source via the GETBOOTSTATUS ioctl. This patch converts the driver to use the standard WDIOF_* flags for this purpose. This patch may break existing userspace code that uses the existing non-standard data format returned by the OMAP watchdog driver's GETBOOTSTATUS ioctl. To fetch detailed reset source information, userspace code will need to retrieve it directly from the CGRM or PRM drivers when those are completed. Previously, to fetch the reset source, the driver either read a register outside the watchdog IP block (OMAP1), or called a function exported directly from arch/arm/mach-omap2. Both approaches are broken. This patch also converts the driver to use a platform_data function pointer. This approach is temporary, and is due to the lack of drivers for the OMAP16xx+ Clock Generation and Reset Management IP block and the OMAP2+ Power and Reset Management IP block. Once drivers are available for those IP blocks, the watchdog driver can be converted to call exported functions from those drivers directly. At that point, the platform_data function pointer can be removed. In the short term, this patch is needed to allow the PRM code to be removed from arch/arm/mach-omap2 (it is being moved to a driver). This version integrates a fix from Jon Hunter <jon-hunter@ti.com> that avoids a NULL pointer dereference in a DT-only boot, and integrates a patch commit message fix from Felipe Balbi <balbi@ti.com>.
