I just can't find any value in MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(WATCHDOG_MINOR)
and MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(TEMP_MINOR) statements.
Either the device is enumerated and the driver already has a module
alias (e.g. PCI, USB etc.) that will get the right driver loaded
automatically.
Or the device is not enumerated and loading its driver will lead to
more or less intrusive hardware poking. Such hardware poking should be
limited to a bare minimum, so the user should really decide which
drivers should be tried and in what order. Trying them all in
arbitrary order can't do any good.
On top of that, loading that many drivers at once bloats the kernel
log. Also many drivers will stay loaded afterward, bloating the output
of "lsmod" and wasting memory. Some modules (cs5535_mfgpt which gets
loaded as a dependency) can't even be unloaded!
If defining char-major-10-130 is needed then it should happen in
user-space.

Use the wrapper function for retrieving the platform data instead of
accessing dev->platform_data directly.

This patch converts the drivers in drivers/watchdog/* to use the
module_platform_driver() macro which makes the code smaller and a bit
simpler.

With the addition of a platform device mfd_cell pointer, MFD drivers
can go back to passing platform data back to their sub drivers.
This allows for an mfd_cell->mfd_data removal and thus keep the
sub drivers MFD agnostic. This is mostly needed for non MFD aware
sub drivers.

Use mfd_data for passing information from mfd drivers to soc
clients. The mfd_cell's driver_data field is being phased out.
Clients that were using driver_data now access .mfd_data
via mfd_get_data().

rdc321x-wdt currently fetches its driver specific data by using the
platform_device->platform_data pointer, this is wrong because the mfd
device which registers our platform_device has been added using
mfd_add_device() which sets the platform_device->driver_data pointer
instead.

The rdc321x southbridge PCI device has no MEM PCI resources that we could
pass to mfd_add_devices. Since 33254dd5, mfd_add_device checks for the
mem_base argument that we set to NULL. Changing the resources passed to
our MFD cells from IORESOURCE_MEM to IORESOURCE_IO fixes that. Since we use
those resources as offsets to the PCI configuration space base address of
the southbridge device this is also more adequate.

The RDC321x MFD southbridge driver will pass a reference to the
southbridge PCI device which should be used by the watchdog driver for its
operations. This patch converts the watchdog driver to use the pci_dev
pointer and make use of the base register resource which is passed along
with the platform device.

A pointer to probe and remove functions is passed to the core via
platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the
.init sections are discarded. Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y)
unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an
oops as does a device being registered late.

Impact: cleanup
Move/remove leftover RDC321 files. Now that it's not a subarch anymore,
arch/x86/mach-rdc321x and arch/x86/include/asm/mach-rdc321x/ are not
needed.
One include file was still in use: rdc321x_defs.h, move that to the
generic x86 asm header directory.
