Actually,
So when 1/2 timeout occurs, the interrupt handler calls panic() or
whatever it's supposed to do.


I understand all that. What I'm saying is that, in the future, when pre-timeout support is added to the watchdog layer, I think it makes sense to modify this driver to use pre-timeout support.
