watchdog: add pretimeout support to the core

Since the watchdog framework centrializes the IOCTL interfaces of device
drivers now, SETPRETIMEOUT and GETPRETIMEOUT need to be added in the
common code.

   If set_timeout is not provided but, WDIOF_SETTIMEOUT is set, the watchdog
   infrastructure updates the timeout value of the watchdog_device internally
   to the requested value.
+  If the pretimeout feature is used (WDIOF_PRETIMEOUT), then set_timeout must
+  also take care of checking if pretimeout is still valid and set up the timer
+  accordingly. This can't be done in the core without races, so it is the
+  duty of the driver.
+* set_pretimeout: this routine checks and changes the pretimeout value of
+  the watchdog. It is optional because not all watchdogs support pretimeout
+  notification. The timeout value is not an absolute time, but the number of
+  seconds before the actual timeout would happen. It returns 0 on success,
+  -EINVAL for "parameter out of range" and -EIO for "could not write value to
+  the watchdog". A value of 0 disables pretimeout notification.
+  (Note: the WDIOF_PRETIMEOUT needs to be set in the options field of the
+  watchdog's info structure).
+  If the watchdog driver does not have to perform any action but setting the
+  watchdog_device.pretimeout, this callback can be omitted. That means if
+  set_pretimeout is not provided but WDIOF_PRETIMEOUT is set, the watchdog
+  infrastructure updates the pretimeout value of the watchdog_device internally
+  to the requested value.
 * get_timeleft: this routines returns the time that's left before a reset.
 * restart: this routine restarts the machine. It returns 0 on success or a
   negative errno code for failure.
