[WATCHDOG] mpc5200_wdt clean-up
* Add MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(WATCHDOG_MINOR);
* Add mandatory WDIOC_GETSTATUS and WDIOC_GETBOOTSTATUS ioctl's.
* If unknown ioctl is used we should return -ENOTTY.
* All watchdog device drivers are VFSs (Virtual File Systems).
We thus return a nonseekable_open(inode, file) when we open the VFS.
* Make sure that /dev/watchdog can be opened by 1 parent
* Add spin-locking to prevent that forked children can disturb
each other's operations.
