b0e0b4b598 watchdog: acquirewdt: Use platform_driver_probe
Using platform_driver_probe instead of platform_driver_register has
two benefits:
* The driver will fail to load if device probing fails.
* The probe function can be marked __init.

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.

0c06090c94 [WATCHDOG] Coding style - Indentation - part 2
This brings the watchdog drivers into line with coding style.
This patch takes cares of the indentation as described in chapter 1.
Main changes:
* Re-structure the ioctl switch call for all drivers as follows:
	switch (cmd) {
	case WDIOC_GETSUPPORT:
	case WDIOC_GETSTATUS:
	case WDIOC_GETBOOTSTATUS:
	case WDIOC_GETTEMP:
	case WDIOC_SETOPTIONS:
	case WDIOC_KEEPALIVE:
	case WDIOC_SETTIMEOUT:
	case WDIOC_GETTIMEOUT:
	case WDIOC_GETTIMELEFT:
	default:
	}

This to make the migration from the drivers to the uniform watchdog
device driver easier in the future.

5eb82498e3 [WATCHDOG] Coding style - Indentation - part 1
This brings the watchdog drivers into line with coding style.
This patch takes cares of the indentation as described in chapter 1:
  The preferred way to ease multiple indentation levels in a switch
  statement is to align the "switch" and its subordinate "case"
  labels in the same column instead of "double-indenting" the "case"
  labels.
