[char-misc-next v3 0/8] mei: create proper iAMT watchdog driver

[Tomas Winkler <tomas.winkler@intel.com>]

Instead of integrating the iAMT watchdog within the mei core driver
we will create a watchdog device on the mei client bus and
create a proper watchdog driver for it.

V3:
1. Rrevert to dynamically alocated watchdog device wrapper
2. Export activation state to via debugfs
3. Move runtime unregistration to the BDW patch

V2: 
1. The watchdog device is no longer dynamically allocated in separate structure
2. Export device internal status via debugfs
3. Address few comments from Guenter
4. Reworked de/registration

The patches should apply and compile on both watchdog-next and char-misc-next
trees/branches.
I would prefer this will go via char-misc-next as this is the tree
we work against and conflicts should be trivial if at any.

  watchdog: mei_wdt: implement MEI iAMT watchdog driver
