[PATCH v2 1/2] watchdog: report fw_version in sysfs

From: Thomas Weißschuh
Date: Mon Dec 19 2022 - 16:31:07 EST


This synchronizes the information reported by ioctl and sysfs.
The mismatch is confusing because "wdctl" from util-linux uses the ioctl
when used with root privileges and sysfs without.

The file is called "fw_version" instead of "firmware_version" as
"firmware_version" is already used as custom attribute by single drivers.
