I performed minor fixes which you pointed out.
But I leaves WDT_WP[0123] on purpose.
The interpretation of this value is different between PPC4xx and e500.
To unite them, I leaves this.

On second thought, I found that it is not so good idea.
If I change this according to what you said, it is not
easy to find which driver outputs messages when we can
use multiple WDT in a system.
Macros in include/linux/device.h will use name member in miscdevice
struct as driver's name, and this is commonly named as "watchdog".
FYI, I show the difference with the patch submitted last time.
Regards,I'll test this driver today, just in case, before I post the
revised edition of this driver.
Regards,
