From d51d3852d1fd28409107274dc1d8077022cc0dc2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ahmad Fatoum Date: Thu, 11 Jun 2020 21:17:42 +0200 Subject: docs: watchdog: codify ident.options as superset of possible status flags The FIXME comment has been in-tree since the very first git commit. The described behavior has been since relied on by some userspace, e.g. the util-linux wdctl command and has been ignored by some kernelspace, like the f71808e_wdt driver. The functionality is useful to have to be able to differentiate between a driver that doesn't support WDIOF_CARDRESET and one that does, but hasn't had a watchdog reset, thus drop the FIXME to encourage drivers adopting this convention.
