2016-05-13watchdog: pic32-dmt: Add PIC32 deadman timer driverPurna Chandra Mandal
Adds support for the deadman timer peripheral found on PIC32 class devices. The primary function of the deadman timer (DMT) is to reset the processor in the event of a software malfunction. The DMT is a free-running instruction fetch timer, which is clocked whenever an instruction fetch occurs until a count match occurs. Instructions are not fetched when the processor is in sleep mode.
