Mark the static struct file_operations in drivers/char as const. Making
them const prevents accidental bugs, and moves them to the .rodata section
so that they no longer do any false sharing; in addition with the proper
debug option they are then protected against corruption..

the attached patch moves the content of drivers/char/watchdog/i6300.h
into drivers/char/watchdog/i6300.c, since it is the only file using the
defines there is no real reason to have a separate header.
Also cleaned up the comments a bit and added myself to the copyright
holders.

In i6300esb.c watchdog card driver were 2 bugs (misused pc_match_device and
pci_dev_put wasn't called in one error case) and one little cleanup was
done (long line was converted to a shorter one with using built-in macro).

One pci_dev_put was misused (there was one case without putting
the device).
Changed nowayout according to other drivers.

This patch writes into bit 8 of the reload register to perform the
correct 'Reload Sequence' instead of writing into bit 4 of Watchdog for
Intel 6300ESB chipset.

This patch sets the WDT_ENABLE bit of the Lock Register to enable the
watchdog and WDT_LOCK bit only if nowayout is set. The old code always
sets the WDT_LOCK bit of watchdog timer for Intel 6300ESB chipset. So, we
end up locking the watchdog instead of enabling it.

This patch changes pci_find_device to pci_get_device
(encapsulated in for_each_pci_dev) in i6300esb watchdog
card with appropriate adding pci_dev_put.

I wrote earlier to the list[1] asking for a driver for the watchdog
included in the 6300ESB chipset. I got a 2.4 driver via private email
from Ross Biro which I've changed into what I hope resembles a 2.6
driver (which was done by looking a lot at the watchdog drivers
already in the 2.6 tree).
I've attached the result, and I'm hoping to get some feedback on the
coding as a first step. I can't actually test it on the hardware
right now as I won't have physical access until April. So my own tests
have been limited to "compiles-without-warnings" and
"can-be-insmodded-in-other-machine-without-oops".
