Subject: watchdog: del_timer call missing on the cpu5wdt.c

Hi,

We do a setup_timer at init stage of the module, but we didn't
de-activate the time using del_timer.

The below patch may help doing so..

Please feel free to comment...



diff --git a/drivers/watchdog/cpu5wdt.c b/drivers/watchdog/cpu5wdt.c
index 7e88839..fca50a7 100644
--- a/drivers/watchdog/cpu5wdt.c

cpu5wdt_device.queue = 0;
wait_for_completion(&cpu5wdt_device.stop);

}


Thanks,
Devendra.
