I can see the dependency fixes, but the driver itself is still using
miscdevice instead of the new watchdog core:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=blob;f=drivers/watchdog/omap_wdt.c;b=master

This patch is not needed for using the watchdog on a multiplatform
kernel, but using multiple watchdogs (i.e. twl4030_wdt and omap_wdt)
at the same time. It also simplifies the driver.
