CONFIG_ITCO_WDT is actually already set to "y" in LEDE's current kernel configuration, but it seems that some dependency is getting compiled as a module, also forcing iTCO_wdt to be compiled as a module. Felix said to just build it into the kernel anyway, which I plan to do, but I haven't had a chance to look at what is causing it to build as a module instead of into the kernel yet.

it might be easier just to cherry-pick this in.

This supports the Intel TCO Watchdog Timer Device, which has been
nearly ubiquitous in Intel chipsets for almost 20 years.
