    Subject[GEODE] Geode GX/LX watchdog timer (was 2.6.24-rc8 hangs at mfgpt-timer)

    As promised, a watchdog driver for the Geode GX/LX processors is attached.
    I basically just ported the previous patch forward to 2.6.24.

    I also have good news or bad news depending on your perspective. I wanted
    to test this against 2.6.24, and OLPC is stuck at an older kernel version,
    so I had to test this with coreboot (LinuxBIOS) on another Geode
    platform. Like all BIOSen execpt for the OLPC firmware, coreboot uses
    VSA (SMM handler) which consumes all the timers.

    So I used the magical MSR and surprise! - the timer tick hung.
    I compiled out the timer tick, and tested the watchdog timer instead,
    and it worked fine on timer 0. So I don't think the MFGPTs themselves
    have anything to do with this problem, but I do think it might be
    related to VSA and possibly interrupts too. I'm going to invoke the
    strong BIOS fu of our LinuxBIOS / BIOS expert Marc Jones, and see what
    he comes up with.

    I don't know how much of a hassle it would be for Andres to get a 2.6.24
    kernel running on the OLPC to make sure that this isn't a regression
    in the timer tick code (I suspect it isn't a regression, but you never
    know). I also think that it would probably be in our best interest to
    default CONFIG_GEODE_MFGPT_TIMER to 'n' until we get this figured
    out. Since most BIOSen don't have timers available, that shouldn't affect
    too many people.

    So, anyway, enjoy the watchdog timer - I hope it meets everybody's
    expectations for the 2.6.25 kernel.

    [GEODE] Add a watchdog driver based on the CS5535/CS5536 MFGPT timers

    From: Jordan Crouse <jordan.crouse@amd.com>

    Add a watchdog timer based on the MFGPT timers in the CS5535/CS5536
    companion chips to the AMD Geode GX and LX processors. Only caveat
    is that the BIOS must provide at least a one free timer, and most
    do not.
