Adding Timur, as he's touched watchdog last.

Thanks for catching this.  I'm amazed that this driver still has bugs like this.

You don't need to create 'argp'.  The existing 'p' variable will work
in the copy_to_user() call.

This can fit in one line, especially if you use 'p' instead of 'argp'.

While you're at it, I found a few related bugs.  Can you fix these, also?

1.	case WDIOC_SETOPTIONS:
		if (get_user(tmp, p))
			return -EINVAL;

This should return -EFAULT.

2. 	case WDIOC_GETBOOTSTATUS:
		/* XXX: something is clearing TSR */
		tmp = mfspr(SPRN_TSR) & TSR_WRS(3);
		/* returns CARDRESET if last reset was caused by the WDT */
		return (tmp ? WDIOF_CARDRESET : 0);

This should use put_user() to return the value, instead of returning
it as a return code.

You can title the new patch something like, "booke/wdt: some ioctls do
not return values properly"

Will regenerate this patch including these error as v2.
