Subject: [PATCH 06/10] Make IT87 fix-up automatic by default
- Update 00cf0b0 from Maciej S. Szmigiero proposed making the IT87
style of fix something that is set only by the configuration file,
however, for many users with the buggy IT87 driver this will cause
problems.
- This change make the choice a 3 state one:
NO = never use ioctl-based refresh (old way, and in keeping
with the kernel API guidelines for watchdog use).
YES = always use the ioctl-based refresh (i.e set timer every
time, instead of writing to /dev/watchdog). Might be
useful if another driver module is found to share same
sort of bug as the IT87 module.
AUTO = check for IT87 and use ioctl-based method if found. This
is the same basec behaviour as before update 00cf0b0 but
the choice for yes/no now supported.
