Actually I was wrong. fenced indeed looks like it creates "watchdog"
device, but it happens too early - at this time fenced still does not
have value of watchdog timeout so it always skips this device. That
explains why device is "invisible" - it does not exist :)
Otherwise what I said applies - watchdog fencing is used as fallback if
all other devices failed and timeout starts when pacemaker decided to
use watchdog fencing.
