All variables required by the watchdog core to manage a watchdog are currently stored in struct watchdog_device. The lifetime of those variables is determined by the watchdog driver. However, the lifetime of variables used by the watchdog core differs from the lifetime of struct watchdog_device. To remedy this situation, watchdog drivers can implement ref and unref callbacks, to be used by the watchdog core to lock struct watchdog_device in memory.
While this solves the immediate problem, it depends on watchdog drivers to actually implement the ref/unref callbacks. This is error prone, often not implemented in the first place, or not implemented correctly. To solve the problem without requiring driver support, split the variables in struct watchdog_device into two data structures - one for variables associated with the watchdog driver, one for variables associated with the watchdog core. With this approach, the watchdog core can keep track of its variable lifetime and no longer depends on ref/unref callbacks in the driver. As a side effect, some of the variables originally in struct watchdog_driver are now private to the watchdog core and no longer visible in watchdog drivers. The 'ref' and 'unref' callbacks in struct watchdog_driver are no longer used and marked as deprecated.
