Sorry, I didn't. I just worked it out from the framework core and looking
at your examples.
When I found the framework patches on lkml I couldn't get them into a state
to apply to my tree. I ended up manually applying all the pieces so I skipped
the Documentation stuff to save some time.
The conversion is pretty straight forward after examining the watchdog
framework files.
