One empty line would be sufficient.

2 x addr ? Should the second one (last parameter) be data ?

Just wondering - why not just write 0 ?

The watchdog core supports limit checking. Might as well use it.

On a side note, it might be an interesting experience if you try setting
a value of 0 or larger than 128. Unless I am missing something,
driver_data->dev is never initialized.

AFAIK devm_ functions already issue a message on errors, so it is unnecessary
to issue another one here.

There is no call to watchdog_init_timeout, and the timeout value is not initialized
in palmas_wdt. So the driver depends on the limit being set from user space
with WDIOC_SETTIMEOUT. But that can not happen until after it was opened
and started, meaning it is initially 0 when the watchdog is started.
Is that on purpose ? A more common default would be 60 seconds.

Also, if user space does not explicitly set the timeout but requests it
with WDIOC_GETTIMEOUT, it will get a value of 0.

It is unnecessary to set the platform data to NULL. Besides, it isn't
even set yet (you only set it with dev_set_drvdata below).

Might use platform_set_drvdata.

Personal style, but I think this is unnecessary. Coding style examples suggest
to return directly in such cases (ie if there is no cleanup to do).

platform_get_drvdata ?
