From 0254e953537c92df3e7d0176f401a211e944fd61 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net>
Date: Sun, 3 Jan 2016 15:11:58 -0800
Subject: watchdog: Drop pointer to watchdog device from struct watchdog_device
The lifetime of the watchdog device pointer is different from the lifetime
of its character device. Remove it entirely to avoid race conditions.
