watchdog: add pretimeout support to the core

Browse source 
Since the watchdog framework centrializes the IOCTL interfaces of device
drivers now, SETPRETIMEOUT and GETPRETIMEOUT need to be added in the
common code.

If set_timeout is not provided but, WDIOF_SETTIMEOUT is set, the watchdog
infrastructure updates the timeout value of the watchdog_device internally
to the requested value.
If the pretimeout feature is used (WDIOF_PRETIMEOUT), then set_timeout must
also take care of checking if pretimeout is still valid and set up the timer
accordingly. This can't be done in the core without races, so it is the
duty of the driver.
* set_pretimeout: this routine checks and changes the pretimeout value of
the watchdog. It is optional because not all watchdogs support pretimeout
notification. The timeout value is not an absolute time, but the number of
seconds before the actual timeout would happen. It returns 0 on success,
-EINVAL for "parameter out of range" and -EIO for "could not write value to
the watchdog". A value of 0 disables pretimeout notification.
(Note: the WDIOF_PRETIMEOUT needs to be set in the options field of the
watchdog's info structure).
If the watchdog driver does not have to perform any action but setting the
watchdog_device.pretimeout, this callback can be omitted. That means if
set_pretimeout is not provided but WDIOF_PRETIMEOUT is set, the watchdog
infrastructure updates the pretimeout value of the watchdog_device internally
to the requested value.
* get_timeleft: this routines returns the time that's left before a reset.
* restart: this routine restarts the machine. It returns 0 on success or a
negative errno code for failure.
