Dear Ondrej,

As advised by another kernel maintainer, patches for antiquated drivers like these (this one which I test-built successfully) should hang around until someone with the hardware volunteers to test it. Therefore, I would provide the software and the individual would serve as the hardware tester with the provided software. So far, I've worked with Guenter Roeck to conform it to the watchdog subsystem. And now I'm letting it sit until someone with the hardware is able to test it.

Thank you,
Mark
