Many watchdog drivers explicitly stop the watchdog when unregistering it.
While it is unclear if this is actually needed (the whatdog should not be
running at that time if it can be stopped), introduce a helper to
explicitly stop the watchdog in the watchdog core when unregistering it.
This helps r

Please do not quote an entire huge patch just to comment on a small
part of it.

SPARC M7 processor adds additional metadata for memory address space
that can be used to secure access to regions of memory. This additional
metadata is implemented as a 4-bit tag attached to each cacheline size
block of memory. A task can set a tag on any number of such blocks.
Access to such bloc

The Qualcomm Datacenter Technologies Falkor v1 CPU may allocate TLB entries
using an incorrect ASID when TTBRx_EL1 is being updated. When the erratum
is triggered, page table entries using the new translation table base
address (BADDR) will be allocated into the TLB using the old ASID. All

During a TLB invalidate sequence targeting the inner shareable domain,
Falkor may prematurely complete the DSB before all loads and stores using
the old translation are observed. Instruction fetches are not subject to
the conditions of this erratum. If the original code sequence includes
multiple T
