[PATCH v3 02/16] watchdog: add error messages when initializing timeout fails

From: Wolfram Sang
Date: Fri Apr 19 2019 - 14:16:55 EST


This not only removes boilerplate code from watchdog drivers, it can
also be more specific which of the supplied value actually fails. Also,
the loglevel becomes now consistent across drivers.
