Subject: [PATCH] watchdog: it87_wdt: Keep WDTCTRL bit 3 unmodified for IT8784/IT8786
Git-commit: d12971849d71781c1e4ffd1117d4878ce233d319
Patch-mainline: v6.8-rc1
References: git-fixes
WDTCTRL bit 3 sets the mode choice for the clock input of IT8784/IT8786.
Some motherboards require this bit to be set to 1 (= PCICLK mode),
otherwise the watchdog functionality gets broken. The BIOS of those
motherboards sets WDTCTRL bit 3 already to 1.
Instead of setting all bits of WDTCTRL to 0 by writing 0x00 to it, keep
bit 3 of it unchanged for IT8784/IT8786 chips. In this way, bit 3 keeps
the status as set by the BIOS of the motherboard.
Watchdog tests have been successful with this patch with the following
Systems: IT8784: Thomas-Krenn LES plus v2 (YANLING YL-KBRL2 V2) IT8786: Thomas-Krenn LES plus v3 (YANLING YL-CLU L2) IT8786: Thomas-Krenn LES network 6L v2 (YANLING YL-CLU6L)
