Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/4] watchdog: hpwdt: Don't disable watchdog on NMI
Date: Mon, 14 Jan 2019 07:36:14 +0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190114023617.10656-2-mironov.ivan@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190114023617.10656-1-mironov.ivan@gmail.com>

Existing code disables watchdog on NMI right before completely hanging
the system.

There are two problems here:

 * First, watchdog is expected to reset the system in a case of such
   failure, no matter what.
 * Second, this code has no effect if there are more than one watchdog.
