@Heiko: Check if we have a chance to put the whole commit upstream.
Aehm... this is the "reworked for mainline patch" we currently talk about!
:-P
The question is, if we can get the siemens linux port also to mainline linux! But we should discuss first internally...
There is no Linux-counterpart for the SCU WDT story, Linux WDT driver only uses standard API of SCU FW. The U-Boot extensions will talk to firmware extensions, as I've described previously:
