From: Sylvain Lemieux <slemieux at tycoint.com>

The LPC32xx provide the capability to perform a soft or hard reset;
a soft reset will no reset the external peripheral
(i.e. RESOUT_N output not asserted).

This changeset migrate the restart code from the "mach-lpc32xx" to
the "pnx-4008" watchdog driver and add the soft reset capability.

The default behavior (i.e. hard reset) remain unchanged.

This patchset have a dependency on the following patch:
watchdog: Add 'action' and 'data' parameters to restart handler callback
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.watchdog/3364/

Note:
Patch #5 was generated with the option "--unified=2" to ensure
it can be apply before or after the changes for the new 
LPC32xx irqchip driver:
