Subject: [PATCH 1/2] watchdog: bd70528: don't crash if WDG is confiured with BD71828

If config for BD70528 watchdog is enabled when BD71828 or BD71815
are used the RTC module will issue call to BD70528 watchdog with
NULL data. Ignore this call and don't crash.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] watchdog: BD70528: conditionally allow BD70528 module

The BD70528 watchdog module provides start/stop interface for RTC
driver because the BD70528 watchdog must be stopped when RTC time
is set. (WDG uses RTC counter and setting RTC may accidentally trigger
WDG if WDG is enabled). The BD71828 use same RTC driver as BD70528 but
don't share same WDG logic. When BD70528 is not configured a stub call
to "stop WDG" is implemented and in case when BD71828 is used, this
stub function should be called. Prevent configuring in the BD70528
watchdog when BD71828 is configured to avoid access to real WDG
functions when WDG does not exist in HW.

I really think this should be handled in the calling code.
Also, I am curious how this is supposed to work.

The code is called with

ret = bd70528_wdt_set(r->parent, new_state & BD70528_WDT_STATE_BIT,
old_state);

from bd70528_set_rtc_based_timers(). That same function subsequently
calls bd70528_set_elapsed_tmr() with the same parameter, and that
parameter is dereferenced in bd70528_set_elapsed_tmr() without checking.

Conceptually, it should not be necessary to determine at compile-time
which of the chips is in the system. It should be posible to compile
a single kernel which supports all chips.

As mentioned in my response to the other patch, I think this is the
wrong solution.

Thanks a lot for taking a careful look at this Guenter!

My brainfart.
The bd70528_wdt_set is not called as it is protected in RTC by
has_rtc_timers flag.

I inserted this check in wrong function. The bd70528_wdt_lock()
is where we may hit the problem as it is not protected.

I agree. The information whether WDT should be accessed should be
judged by dt-compatible. MFD has this knowledge and passes it to RTC.
So yes, RTC should omit the call if BD70528 is not used. Please ignore
these patches, I'll do changes to RTC driver :)

Actually, after a fresh look - it seems the bd70528_wdt_lock() is also
just fine. The RTC is not grabbing the lock on other PMICs but the
BD70528. I'm not really sure what I have been thinking of. @_@ I
should've been more careful. Thanks for spotting this in the review!

Matti
