commit: bea1906620ce72b63f83735c4cc2642b25ec54ae From: David Engraf <david.eng...@sysgo.com> Date: Wed, 20 Jul 2011 15:03:39 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] watchdog: shwdt: fix usage of mod_timer
Fix the usage of mod_timer() and make the driver usable. mod_timer() must be called with an absolute timeout in jiffies. The old implementation used a relative timeout thus the hardware watchdog was never triggered.
