watchdog: Use static struct class watchdog_class in stead of pointer

We need few sysfs attributes to know different status of a watchdog device.
To do that, we need to associate .dev_groups with watchdog_class. So
convert it from pointer to static.
Putting this static struct in watchdog_dev.c, so that static device
attributes defined in that file can be attached to it.

watchdog: core: don't try to stop device if not running

A watchdog device may be stopped from userspace using WDIOC_SETOPTIONS
ioctl and flag WDIOS_DISABLECARD. If the device is closed after this
operation, watchdog_release() is called and status bits checked for
stopping it. Besides, if the device has not been unregistered a critical
message "watchdog did not stop!" is printed, although the ioctl may have
successfully stopped it already.

Without the patch a user application sample code like this will successfully
stop the watchdog, but the kernel will output the message
"watchdog did not stop!":

wd_fd = open("/dev/watchdog", O_RDWR);

flags = WDIOS_DISABLECARD;
ioctl(wd_fd, WDIOC_SETOPTIONS, &flags);

close(wd_fd);

watchdog: Fix race condition in registration code

A race condition exists when registering the first watchdog device.
Sequence of events:

- watchdog_register_device calls watchdog_dev_register
- watchdog_dev_register creates the watchdog misc device by calling
misc_register.
At that time, the matching character device (/dev/watchdog0) does not yet
exist, and old_wdd is not set either.
- Userspace gets an event and opens /dev/watchdog
- watchdog_open is called and sets wdd = old_wdd, which is still NULL,
and tries to dereference it. This causes the kernel to panic.

Seen with systemd trying to open /dev/watchdog immediately after
it was created.

In commit 7a87982420e5e126bfefeb42232d1fd92052794e we added
a wrapper for the WDIOC_GETSTATUS ioctl call. The code results
however in a different behaviour: it returns an error if the
driver doesn't support the status operation. This is not
according to the API that says that when we don't support
the status operation, that we just should return a 0 value.
Only when the device isn't there anymore, we should return an
error.

watchdog: Add support for dynamically allocated watchdog_device structs

If a driver's watchdog_device struct is part of a dynamically allocated
struct (which it often will be), merely locking the module is not enough,
even with a drivers module locked, the driver can be unbound from the device,
examples:
1) The root user can unbind it through sysfd
2) The i2c bus master driver being unloaded for an i2c watchdog

I will gladly admit that these are corner cases, but we still need to handle
them correctly.

The fix for this consists of 2 parts:
1) Add ref / unref operations, so that the driver can refcount the struct
holding the watchdog_device struct and delay freeing it until any
open filehandles referring to it are closed
2) Most driver operations will do IO on the device and the driver should not
do any IO on the device after it has been unbound. Rather then letting each
driver deal with this internally, it is better to ensure at the watchdog
core level that no operations (other then unref) will get called after
the driver has called watchdog_unregister_device(). This actually is the
bulk of this patch.

watchdog: Add Locking support

This patch fixes some potential multithreading issues, despite only
allowing one process to open the /dev/watchdog device, we can still get
called multiple times at the same time, since a program could be using thread,
or could share the fd after a fork.

This causes 2 potential problems:
1) watchdog_start / open do an unlocked test_n_set / test_n_clear,
if these 2 race, the watchdog could be stopped while the active
bit indicates it is running or visa versa.

2) Most watchdog_dev drivers probably assume that only one
watchdog-op will get called at a time, this is not necessary
true atm.
