[PATCH 1/2] watchdog: Add support for WDIOC_GETTIMELEFT IOCTL in watchdog core

[Linus Walleij]

From: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar at st.com>

This patch adds support for WDIOC_GETTIMELEFT IOCTL in watchdog core. So, there
is another function pointer added to struct watchdog_ops, which can be passed by
drivers to support this IOCTL.

Related documentation is updated too.
