From 906d7a5cfeda508e7361f021605579a00cd82815 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pratyush Anand Date: Thu, 17 Dec 2015 17:53:58 +0530 Subject: watchdog: Use static struct class watchdog_class in stead of pointer We need few sysfs attributes to know different status of a watchdog device. To do that, we need to associate .dev_groups with watchdog_class. So convert it from pointer to static. Putting this static struct in watchdog_dev.c, so that static device attributes defined in that file can be attached to it.
